I have an Antec Fusion Black case running Gentoo Linux with MythTV. In order to get the LCD display to work i need to compile lcdproc with the patch found here: http://codeka.com/blogs/index.php/dean/2007/09/11/imon_lcd_patch_v0_3 (NOTE: link does not work with firefox 3 for some reason). I have created a modified ebuild that works for me. I will try to upload the modified ebuild along with the corresponding patch. This is my first bug report so suggestions are appreciated. I am submitting this bug report in order to give something back to Gentoo and start getting involved. Thanks! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge lcdproc without the patch 2. None of the current LCD devices seemed applicable 3. Actual Results: Without the patch the LCD display did not work. Expected Results: With the patch and setting LCD_DEVICES="imonlcd" in make.conf it compiled just fine and works great with MythTV I had to install lirc-0.8.3-r2 with the LIRC_DEVICES="imon_lcd". I also had to edit the LCDd.conf file according to the directions here: http://codeka.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=22 [imonlcd] #Size=16x2 Device=/dev/lcd0 Contrast=100 If I Uncomment the "Size=" line it doesn't work for some reason. here is my emerge --info incase it's needed: Portage 2.2_rc1 (default/linux/amd64/2008.0, gcc-4.3.1, glibc-2.8_p20080602-r0, 2.6.24-gentoo-r8 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: Linux-2.6.24-gentoo-r8-x86_64-AMD_Athlon-tm-_X2_Dual_Core_Processor_BE-2400-with-glibc2.2.5 Timestamp of tree: Sat, 19 Jul 2008 11:15:01 +0000 app-shells/bash: 3.2_p39 dev-lang/python: 2.5.2-r5 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.0.0 sys-apps/openrc: 0.2.5 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1-r3 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.62-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.7.9-r1, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10.1-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.18-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.0-r4 sys-devel/libtool: 2.2.4 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.25-r4 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=k8 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/php/apache2-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cgi-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cli-php5/ext-active/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo /etc/udev/rules.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=k8 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="distlocks parallel-fetch preserve-libs sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.mirrors.tds.net/gentoo http://mirror.datapipe.net/gentoo http://gentoo.chem.wisc.edu/gentoo/ http://prometheus.cs.wmich.edu/gentoo http://gentoo.seren.com/gentoo http://mirror.datapipe.net/gentoo" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS="--progress" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.us.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="3dnow 3dnowext X a52 aac acl acpi alsa amd64 apache2 berkdb bindist branding bzip2 caps cdr cli cracklib crypt cups dbus dri dvd dvdr ffmpeg flac fortran gdbm gif glibc-omitfp gmp gpm hal iconv ieee1394 ipv6 isdnlog ivtv jpeg jpeg2k kde kdehiddenvisibility lcd libwww lirc logrotate midi mmx mmxext mp2 mp3 mplayer mudflap multilib mysql ncurses nfs nls nptl nptlonly ogg opengl openmp oss pam pcre perl php png pppd python qt3 quicktime readline reflection samba session spell spl sse sse2 ssl tcpd threads tiff truetype unicode usb v4l v4l2 vcd vorbis x264 xine xml xorg xpm xv xvid zlib" ALSA_CARDS="ali5451 als4000 atiixp atiixp-modem bt87x ca0106 cmipci emu10k1x ens1370 ens1371 es1938 es1968 fm801 hda-intel intel8x0 intel8x0m maestro3 trident usb-audio via82xx via82xx-modem ymfpci" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="mouse keyboard" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="imonlcd" LIRC_DEVICES="imon_lcd" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="vesa fglrx radeon" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS
Created attachment 160833 [details] Modified Ebuild This is the modified ebuild I am using, I wasn't sure if it was appropriate to rename it -r2 or leave it as -r1. I set LCD_DEVICES="imonlcd". I haven't tested it with other LCD_DEVICES settings to make sure it didn't break something.
Created attachment 160835 [details, diff] imonlcd patch for lcdproc This is the patch applied by the ebuild. Downloaded from: http://codeka.com/blogs/index.php/dean/2007/09/11/imon_lcd_patch_v0_3. Again, I havn't tested this patch with other LCD_DEVICES but I don't expect it would break anything.
