 When I began configuring my Soundgraph imon device (Silverstone LC 16MR case) I wondered why the device /dev/lcdX was working only sometimes. And sometimes it did not. Then I found out that the device number was not static. It changed after a reboot. So it might be that /dev/lcd0 was /dev/lcd1 after a reboot. As a workaround I used an udev rule that created a symbolic link (e.g. /dev/imon-lcd) that pointed to /dev/lcdX). Maybe that is a hint to help solving the imon problem.
Thanks Swanseasurfing. That's certainly good advice. I believe that the nodes issue has been addressed (at least in the Debian/Ubuntu packages) by using cme. The config creates a static /dev symbolic link..

 In my system I have /dev/lcd2 symlinked to /dev/imon-lcd.

 However, I believe that for other distributions, that is not the case.
