[Bug 800987] [NEW] LCDproc server set to display server status by default

 

Public bug reported:

I have recently installed mythbuntu 11.04 on a machine that has an iMon based LCD display.
By default the LCDproc service is configured to rotate the 'ServerScreen' (the "Welcome to LCDproc" message) as part of it's normal display.
This is somewhat annoying as every 10 seconds the display flashes "Welcome to LCDproc" whilst mythlcdserver is using the display.

The cause is /etc/LCDd.conf has the following directive set to "on" by
default:

# If yes, the the serverscreen will be rotated as a usual info screen. If no,
# it will be a background screen, only visible when no other screens are
# active. The special value 'blank' is similar to no, but only a blank screen
# is displayed. [default: on; legal: on, off, blank]
ServerScreen=on

The fix is to set it to 'no' or 'blank'
ServerScreen=no

Suggest that mythbuntu provide an alternate configuration for LCDproc as
all we want to see is mythlcdservers' content on the LCD :)
