    Guys, can you please recommend a nice and cheap LCD display to use with pfSense? I see LCDproc supports a lot of models. Is there a good simple one not too expensive any of you know?

    eBay maybe? Or maybe somebody has a spare LCD module in a case which he doesn't use, hm? ::)

      How about this one?

      http://www.ebay.com/itm/Arduino-IIC-I2C-TWI-Serial-LCD-1602-Module-Shield-Display-Test-code-B-W-/150710393481?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item23170a1a89

      Or these:

      Would these be working with pfSense / LCDproc?

        It has to be supported by one of the drivers included in lcdproc (or you can write your own driver!).
        The second two devices look likely to be covered by this:
