To follow up on some emails on this.
Some said it need to have the paneld=YES back in the rc.conf file.
Actually, you do not need to at all.
I do exactly what I wrote in my email to the list and to display
anything to the LCD, I simply do
echo -n 'test 32MB-4GB' > /dev/lcd
for example to have the first line display only test and the second line
display the 32MB-4GB.
Each line display 16 characters, so just fill it with space if you don't
want to display anything on the first line and then type what you want
on the second line.
The -n is simply to remove the linefeed at the end as it would display a
square on the LCD.
That's all there is to it.
Daniel

Hola everyone!
I finally got my RaQ2+ running with NetBSD 1.6.1 (using the Restore CD)
and it works fine. The only thing that bugs me now is that the LCD
always says (after booting):
[Starting Up]
> Cron
is there any way i can change that ? Like, Date/Time on the first line,
and network id on the second one?
If so, could anyone point me toward the right place?
Thanks a bunch!
