Hmm,....

Dont work for me :(

compiled without Problems, but if i try to start VDR-1.3.36 i get
following messages in /var/log/vdr.log

Jan 17 02:38:13 vdr1 vdr[26391]: initializing plugin: graphlcd (0.1.3): Output to graphic LCD
Jan 17 02:38:13 vdr1 vdr[26522]: t6963c: Testing ECP mode...
Jan 17 02:38:13 vdr1 vdr[26522]: t6963c: working!
Jan 17 02:38:13 vdr1 vdr[26522]: t6963c: T6963 initialized.

After here it stops

messages in /var/log/syslog

Jan 17 02:38:13 vdr1 kernel: ppdev0: registered pardevice
Jan 17 02:38:13 vdr1 kernel: ppdev0: negotiated back to compatibility mode because user-space forgot
Jan 17 02:38:13 vdr1 kernel: ppdev0: unregistered pardevice
Jan 17 02:38:14 vdr1 rc-scripts: aborted, please check logfile

The start of VDR failed. :(
For what stay the messages in syslog?

BaseSystem Gentoo, what else :)

graphlcd.conf
...
[t6963c]
Driver=t6963c
Port=0x378
Device=/dev/parport0
Width=240
Height=128
UpsideDown=yes
Invert=yes
RefreshDisplay=1 
...

Same setup with vdr-graphlcd-0.1.2-pre6  worked without probs

Cheers
