He could do that but that doesn't change the fact that it should work, 
maybe not with a hasLCD() function but using the frontend settings where 
you can decide which info to show on the display. You should at least be 
able to disable the LCD by unchecking all those items.

Strange thing is that I wrote most of that code and I thought that when 
Isaac checked it in he had changed it to make it update a lot less 
often, my original code would update it every second. Obviously I was wrong.

Cheers,
