RE: Pertelian X2040 on debian-arm running on a NSLU2

Joe,

 

Yes, I have it running for a month - both on Unslung 6.8 as well as on Debian I have the X2040 LCD. The Unslung 6.8 is my favorite, as in this config it is a standalone NSLU2 with mem  stick, plus the X2040 display. I have a shell script for displaying weather, latest news, twitter status and local network info.

 

For unslung 6.8, I interpreted : http://www.nabble.com/Unslung-serial-port-using-the-FTDI-chipset-t2498743.html.

For Debian, I interpreted http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/SlugOS/InstallPertelianLCD as follows:

I did not have time to work this in a wiki, but these links should provide you with plenty good info.

Bob

Hi all,

Hopefully this is the right list, the nslu2-general group says that questions about running Debian on the slug should come here.

I just recently got etch running on my NSLU2, and it runs great! I want to attach a Pertelian X2040 LCD (attaches via USB) to show basic system statistics, etc. But before I do that, I wanted to ask if anyone knows if it will run successfully with LCDproc or lcd4linux or a similar tool?

I know it can run on SlugOS and Unslung but couldn't find any info about it running in Debian ARM.

Thanks!
