Hi Guys
I am currently running Firebox 500 with Pfsense 2.0 with embedded version of it and I installed the LCD package via webgui but it seems the LCD dont work and I enabled it and it still dont work so what do I need to do get this working?

Are you running lcdproc-dev?
Did you start the service in Status: Services:? The config is confusingly labelled in my opinion.

I dont think I started it and yes I do believe im running lcdproc-dev but I will check again.

what com port should it be on?
like usb com port 1? Serial com port 1 or 2 under /dev/cau0/1 or what?

Also what driver should I be using because right now its setting at pyramid?

Should be the parallel port and the driver is named "Watchguard Firebox with SDEC". If that does not show up, you don't have lcdproc-dev.
