How to configure lcdproc config manually

[ezyclie]

Hi,

Is there any way to configure lcdproc screen layouts manually from config file? I prefer to have classic lcdproc layout instead of the layouts from pfSense package (lcdproc_client.php).

Thanks,
Alie T

There is no way to actually write the screen data directly (that I know of). You can run the standard lcdproc client and select which screens it will display by running it:

/usr/local/bin/lcdproc C T U &

Cool, then how to disable run script from pfSense package? I want to run the standard lcdproc client only

Obviously doing this you could easily break something etc etc.  ::)

Edit the file: /usr/local/pkg/lcdproc.inc
Towards the end of the file the rc script is generated. Change the line

$start .= "\t/usr/bin/nice -20 /usr/local/bin/php -f /usr/local/pkg/lcdproc_client.php &\n";

to

$start .= "\t/usr/bin/nice -20 /usr/local//bin/lcdproc C T U &\n";

Change C T U for whatever screens you want. Re-sync the package or reboot the box.
