Post subject: | VFD with MythTV - HowTo |
I have enabled LCD in mythfrontend. I have enabled all options. But my VFD doesn't light up (even after a restart). I've tried to start LCDd in command line and it did work. The VFD lighted up. (I can't remember what was written) and when I stopped it, it was written "Thank you for using LCDproc+Linux". I think I'm not far to make it work, but I'm totally new to Linux and I have no idea what to do? any help will be appreciated. EDIT : Gigabyte KT400 GA-7VAXP ECP+EPP enabled in bios Case : Ahanix D.Vine 4 KnoppMyth R5A22 EDIT2: I have written a HowTo on KnoppmythWiki |

Search the forum. Folks have mention VFD before, I cannot recall if they got it working or not. You can also check the MythTV archive. |

I looked at the forum. I found one thread. But there are no details on how to make MythTV display its info on the VFD. I will continue to investigate |

I don't know what you're doing wrong, but searching the forums for "vfd" found 12 threads of which 4 actually say "VFD" in the subject line. If you try alternate keywords like LCD I'll bet you find even more. A search on the MythTV mailing list http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/ as Cecil suggested shows: "Your search for vfd returned 196 results". |
