Release Notes: LCDproc controls various LCD and VFD devices in a standardized way on multiple platforms (Linux, *BSD, Darwin, and Solaris). Its client/server model allows multiple systems/clients to use the same display. In addition to the server LCDd, LCDproc ships with a client to display various system statistics, a program starter client, a client to show a virtual console on the LCD, and a few example clients.
Release Notes: Dynamic loading of driver modules was added. LCDd will now use fill-in functions for drivers that don't support a certain function. These are available for: vbar, hbar, bignum, heartbeat, icon, cursor. Client-supplied menus are now supported. Configuration and drivers may be reloaded by sending a SIGHUP. A new API is used. Server internal functions were cleaned up and moved to other files. The menu system was rewritten. Key support was improved: now keys are strings, not just single letters. Reporting levels are now used more consistently.
