Dear Maintainer, Package is missing files and functionalities about USB As a baseline, sources are here https://github.com/lcdproc/lcdproc/tree/master Problem #1 Locally merge PR #200 and #201 (especially #201 for USB interface) Problem #2 The debian package is missing the /etc/LCDd.conf configuration file, obviously nothing can work without it. File is in the root of git master. While you're in it, change the "DriverPath=" line with the proper directory like /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lcdproc/ for instance. Problem #3 The package was not compiled with USB support, meaning except if you have an old PC with a parallel port and an adapter to do some bit banging, it's useless... you need to install both libusb-1.0-0-dev and libusb-dev then: ./configure --enable-libusb --enable libusb-1-0 --enable-drivers=all Problem #4 Mixed up the init.d between the server and the client... fix it: cp scripts/init-LCDd.LSB /etc/init.d/LCDd cp scripts/init-lcdproc.LSB /etc/init.d/lcdproc Thanks.
Hi Yes, some usb drivers were removed a while ago because they use a deprecated libusb. No. I'll wait for a new upstream release. You can help there to get this merged upstream. On my side, I've asked for a new release, nothing can work without it. like /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lcdproc/ for instance. No. By default, this is managed by cme. Please reconfigure your package to have LCDd.conf installed (and tuned for your machine, including the DriverPath line) old PC with a parallel port and an adapter to do some bit banging, it's useless... libusb-dev is deprecated since 2016 (see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/ bugreport.cgi?bug=810428). This led to the removal of some drivers. libusb-1-0 is enabled. Most drivers are provided with lcdproc and lcdproc-extra-drivers. Some drivers are missing due to incompatibilities. (See hhttps://github.com/ lcdproc/lcdproc/issues/13 ) lcdproc is managed by systemd and runs LCDd /etc/init.d/lcdproc is a sysv fallback The services is provided as lcdproc so the service name matches the package name (mismatched names is frowned upon) lcdproc and lcdvc are not installed as daemon. All the best
