Use the default LCDd.conf that gets installed with the lcdproc package.

Change the line {{{ Driver=curses }}} to {{{ Driver=imon }}}

Create a file lirc.conf in /etc/modprobe.d with the following content, this will make sure the soundgraph imon is recognized as a vfd (rather than an lcd)

{{{ options lirc_imon display_type=1 }}}

{{{

  1. LCDd.conf -- configuration file for the LCDproc server daemon LCDd
  3. This file contains the configuration for the LCDd server.
  5. The format is ini-file-like. It is divided into sections that start at
  6. markers that look like [section]. Comments are all line-based comments,
  7. and are lines that start with '#' or ';'.
  9. The server has a 'central' section named [server]. For the menu there is
  10. a section called [menu]. Further each driver has a section which
  11. defines how the driver acts.
  13. The drivers are activated by specifiying them in a driver= line in the
  14. server section, like:
  17. This tells LCDd to use the curses driver.
  18. The first driver that is loaded and is capable of output defines the
  19. size of the display. The default driver to use is curses.
  20. If the driver is specified using the -d <driver> command line option,
  21. the Driver= options in the config file are ignored.
  23. The drivers read their own options from the respective sections.


    1. Server section with all kinds of settings for the LCDd server ##

[server]

  1. Where can we find the driver modules ?
  2. IMPORTANT: Make sure to change this setting to reflect your
  3. specific setup! Otherwise LCDd won't be able to find
  4. the driver modules and will thus not be able to
  5. function properly.
  6. NOTE: Always place a slash as last character !

DriverPath=/usr/lib/lcdproc/

  1. Tells the server to load the given drivers. Multiple lines can be given.
  2. The name of the driver is case sensitive and determines the section
  3. where to look for further configuration options of the specific driver
  4. as well as the name of the dynamic driver module to load at runtime.
  5. The latter one can be changed by giving af File= directive in the
  6. driver specific section.
  8. The following drivers are supported:
  9. bayrad, CFontz, CFontz633, CFontzPacket, curses, CwLnx, ea65,
  10. EyeboxOne, g15, glcdlib, glk, hd44780, icp_a106, imon, imonlcd, IOWarrior,
  11. irman, joy, lb216, lcdm001, lcterm, lirc, lis, MD8800, ms6931, mtc_s16209x,
  12. MtxOrb, mx5000, NoritakeVFD, picolcd, pyramid, sed1330, sed1520, serialPOS,
  13. serialVFD, shuttleVFD, sli, stv5730, svga, t6963, text, tyan, ula200,
  14. xosd

  2. don't go to any client.
  3. These are the defaults:

ToggleRotateKey=Enter PrevScreenKey=Left NextScreenKey=Right

  1. ScrollUpKey=Up
  2. ScrollDownKey=Down

    1. The menu section. The menu is an internal LCDproc client. ##

[menu]

  1. You can configure what keys the menu should use. Note that the MenuKey
  2. will be reserved exclusively, the others work in shared mode.
