[pfSense Support] LCDProc Package on Embedded
Just installed 1.2-RELEASE embedded on an old FireBox x500. I read in the forums that someone wrote an LCDProc package for this. Of course, you can't do packages on the embedded platform. I found this link in the forums http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,12995.0.html which tells you how to make pfsense think it's a full install, but my question is this: does anyone know if the LCDProc package really needs rw access once it's installed? In other words, can I reverse this safely after LCDProc installed? Or should I just leave it rw? echo /dev/ufs/pfSense / ufs rw 1 1 /etc/fstab; echo /dev/ufs/pfSenseCfg /cf ufs rw 1 1 /etc/fstab Dimitri Rodis Integrita Systems LLC http://www.integritasystems.com smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature
Re: [pfSense Support] LCDProc Package on Embedded
Actually, LCDProc would be a pretty cool feature to have as standard in the embedded version of pfSense.If there are problems with the embedded boxes, it's virtually impossible to figure out whats going on. The LCD could display LAN/WAN IP addresses as well as temperature/load and so on.

LCD displays and FreeBSD are a royal mess. 99% of the LCD displays that we have come across require custom kernel changes. As long as this package is in such bad shape there is no possible chance we will add this to the base system until the problems are resolved in the FreeBSD kernel (not having to patch for every device we encounter).
