The glcdlib Driver
This section talks about using LCDproc with LCD displays supported by
graphlcd-base.
Connections
The so-called "meta-driver" glcdlib extends LCDproc's supported drivers by
all the drivers supported by graphlcd-base, which you can get from
.
In order to be able to use it, you have to get and install the glcdprocdriver
from
before configuring the LCDproc build process --enable-drivers=glcdlib.
Configuration in LCDd.conf
[glcdlib]
Mandatory settings
Driver =
GRAPHLCD-DRIVER
Specify which graphical display supported by graphlcd-base to use.
Legal values for GRAPHLCD-DRIVER are
specified in graphlcd's configuration file /etc/graphlcd.conf.
For graphlcd 0.13 they comprise avrctl, framebuffer,
gu140x32f, gu256x64-372, gu256x64C-3xx0,
hd61830, image, ks0108,
noritake800, sed1330, sed1520,
serdisp, simlcd, and t6963c.
If not specified it defaults to image.
UseFT2 = ¶meters.yesdefno;
Tell whether to use FreeType2 or not.
If set to no use graphlcd's bitmap fonts, which is only one size/font file.
If set to to the default value yes use the fonts that FreeType2 provides.
Setting it to yes requires Freetype2 support in libglcdprocdriver and its dependants.
TextResolution = ¶meters.size;
Give text resolution in fixed width characters. If it won't fit according
to the available physical pixel resolution and the minimum available font
face size in pixels, 'DebugBorder' will automatically be turned on.
If not specified, it defaults to 16x4.
FontFile =
FILENAME
Set path to font file to use, e.g. /usr/share/fonts/corefonts/courbd.ttf.
Availalble parameters if UseFT2 = yes
CharEncoding =
CHARSET
Specify character encoding to use, e.g. iso8859-2.
If not given, use the default ISO8859-1.
MinFontFaceSize =
COLUMNS
x
ROWS
minimum size in pixels in which fonts should be rendered
Optional settings
Brightness =
BRIGHTNESS
Brightness (in %) if applicable
Legal values are 0 - 100.
If not specified, the default is 50.
Contrast =
CONTRAST
Set the contrast (in %) if applicable.
Legal values are 0 - 100,
with 50 being the default when not specified.
Backlight = ¶meters.yesnodef;
Backlight if applicable
UpsideDown = ¶meters.yesnodef;
flip image upside down
Invert = ¶meters.yesnodef;
invert light/dark pixels
ShowDebugFrame = ¶meters.yesnodef;
turns on/off 1 pixel thick debugging
border whithin the usable text area,
for setting up TextResolution and
MinFontFaceSize (if using FT2);
ShowBigBorder = ¶meters.yesnodef;
border around the unused area
ShowThinBorder = ¶meters.yesnodef;
border around the unused area
PixelShiftX =
SHIFTX
PixelShiftY =
SHIFTY
Shifts the content of the display by SHIFTX
(default: 0) and SHIFTY
(default: 0) pixels.
