Hi,
I'm just working on my Raspberry Pi 3 B+ and Kodi project. Today I connected a HD44780 Display directly to the GPIO as shown in many tutorials in the www. I have downloaded the hd44780.so File for Raspberry Pi and prepared the LCDd.conf file as seen in the tutorial, installed the required add-ons and did everything else. But the "Enable LCD driver support" menu entry in Kodi is missing, it's not even shown, and the display doesn't show anything but white blocks. I've tried some troubleshooting hints and noticed that when I try to execute the LCDd command via the SSH command line, it says the /etc/LCDd.conf file is missing and aborts. So it seems to me I have to copy the LCDd.conf file to the /etc directory to make LCDd work properly, but the cp command says that the /etc directory is read-only and I can't copy files into it.
Now I'm a little helpless about what to do, can anyone give me some advice?
Thanks in advance.
