[mythtv-users] I just posted directions to get the VFD on the D.Vine 5 working...

[Zach Garner]

I'm pretty sure I got some of it off the list here and would credit but I
wasn't tracking it. I did however write a *working* RHEL(4) init script
for LCDd if anyone can use it. I've put everything into the wiki already.
I'll send the lcdproc guy(s) a copy of this too. RHEL based distro's are
still pretty popular, even if I see a lot more written for Debian. :)

Isaac, you rock.
