The xosd Driver
This section talks about using LCDproc with libxosd.
libxosd is a system
that displays text on top of your X-Windows screen, much like the
on-screen display (OSD) used by most modern televisions and video-players.
Configuration in LCDd.conf
[xosd]
Size = ¶meters.size;
set display size [default: 20x4]
Offset =
X-OFFSET
x
Y-OFFSET
Offset (in pixels) of the top-left corner of LCDproc's
xosd window from the top-left corner of the monitor.
If not given, it defaults to 0x0.
Font =
FONT
X font to use, in XLFD (X Logical Font Description) format,
as given by the xfontsel property.
E.g. -*-terminus-*-r-*-*-*-320-*-*-*-*-*.
For best results it is recommended to use a mono-spaced font
to mimic the aspect of a physical LCD display that most
clients expect with regard to their screen layouts.
Contrast =
CONTRAST
Set the initial contrast.
Legal values for CONTRAST are 0 - 1000.
If not given, the default value is 500.
This parameter can be set but it does not change anything in the driver.
Brightness =
BRIGHTNESS
Set the initial brightness [default: 1000; legal: 1 - 1000]
OffBrightness =
BRIGHTNESS
Set the initial off-brightness [default: 500; legal: 1 - 1000]
This value is used when the display is normally
switched off in case LCDd is inactive
