Greetings

Is there a magic combination of Myth & lcdproc versions that works OK?

Running LCDd from the command line brings up the default server display on
my LCD OK, running lcdproc displays CPU stats etc OK but running Myth
causes a flashing (well a sort of feeble pulsing really) but no actual
data is displayed.

If I change from HD47780 to curses display so I can debug it, it looks OK
on the curses screen. If I run LCDd in debug mode (-r 3) it displays the
screen being created for Myth and then about every second (coincident with
the pulsing) the message "output states changed"

I'm running Myth 18.1, lcdproc 0.4.5 on an Epia SP13000 Gentoo diskless
box. My LCDd.conf file is as follows...

[server]
Driver=HD44780
Bind=127.0.0.1
Port=13666
ReportToSyslog=no
WaitTime=5
User=nobody
ServerScreen=no
Foreground=yes
Heartbeat=off
InitialHeartbeat=off
Backlight=open
InitialBacklight=off
BacklightBrightness=255
BacklightOffBrightness=0
[input]
FreeMainMenuKey=no
[HD44780]
Port=0x378
ConnectionType=winamp
Keypad=yes
Backlight=yes
Size=20x2
DelayBus=true

Cheers
