G15Daemon(1)								 1							      G15Daemon(1)

NAME

       g15daemon - provides access to extra keys and the LCD available on the logitech G15 keyboard.

DESCRIPTION

       G15Daemon  allows  users access to all extra keys by decoding them and pushing them back into the kernel via the linux UINPUT driver.  This
       driver must be loaded before g15daemon can be used for keyboard access.

       The G15 LCD is also supported.  By default, with no other clients active, g15daemon will display a clock.  Client applications and  scripts
       can access the LCD via a simple API.

OPTIONS

       The current version of G15Daemon understands the following options:

       -v     Show version info.

       -s     By  default,  g15daemon  uses  the L1 key to switch between client screens.  Using this switch on the cmdline alters this, making MR
	      (Macro Record) the button to achieve this function.

       -k     Stop a previously running copy of G15Daemon.  For the keys and LCD to work, you'll have to restart the daemon manually.

       -h     Show a brief summary of commandline options available.

BASIC USAGE

       G15Daemon must be run as the root user, either from a startup script (sample scripts are available in the contrib folder) or manually,  via
       the su command.

       To run the daemon with default options, run:

	    g15daemon

       or

	    g15daemon -s to have the MR key as the client screen switch.

       If  all	required libraries are installed and in locations known to your operating system, the daemon will slip quietly into the background
       and a clock will appear on the LCD.  Congratulations!  The linux kernel will now output keycodes for all your extra keys.

NAME

       procmeter3-lcd - A system monitoring program with LCDproc display.

SYNOPSIS

       procmeter3-lcd [-h|--help] [--rc=<filename>] [--...]  [...]

DESCRIPTION

       ProcMeter  Displays one or more pieces of information about the operating system and other resources.  Most of the information that is dis-
       played comes from the /proc filesystem.	The program is modular and very configurable.

OPTIONS

       The command line options are described below.

       -h     Provides a help message listing the available outputs.  This will be different for different computers depending on the Linux kernel
	      version that is being used and the hardware/software that is configured.

       --rc=<filename>
	      Load the specified .procmeterrc file in stead of the searching in the usual places.

       --...  A  list  of  configuration file options that will override the values in the .procmeterrc file.  The format of these options is (for
	      example) --LCD.host=localhost which is equivalent to the entry in the .procmeterrc file of

	       [LCD]
	       host = localhost

	      All spaces around the equal sign must be removed and if spaces are required in the value on the right hand side then quotes must	be
	      used around the entire command line option.

       ...    A  list  of  names of outputs that are to be displayed.  This can include any of the outputs that are available (see the -h option).
	      For the CPU usage is in a module named Statistics with an output named CPU and there are graph (-g), text (-t) and bar (-b) options.
	      To display the CPU usage graph you would use the command line option Statistics.CPU-g

USAGE

       When  started  the program will display on an attached LCD display using the LCDd daemon program (from http://lcdproc.omnipotent.net).  The
       outputs that are displayed are those from the command line and those from the .procmeterrc configuration file.

MODULES

       The modules that are available for procmeter3-lcd are described in the procmeter3_modules(1) manual page.
