      Ok I feel dumb now.

      I have tried so many things/options to get  a 20x4 USB SureElec LCD working on pfsense, its driving me crazy.

      I have tried adding a LCDd.conf file, tried all usb ports, all connection type, no go.

      Obviously, at that point I need a step by step 101 guide for dummies.

      ANY HELP is welcomed.

      EDIT: My service is not starting. Not certain where to cheeck for logs/troubleshoot at that point. Thanks

            Actually I got it working. I had to pick USB com port 1 and driver sureElec. Then i had to go to  /usr/local/pkg/lcdproc.inc and change localhost 127.0.0.1
