    You know what?

    IT WORKS!!!!!

    I had to implement the Adafruit_SSD1306 forlder from my Link above and change the ADAFRUIT_GPIO with the one from GitHub - adafruit/Adafruit_Python_GPIO: Library to provide a cross-platform GPIO interface on the Raspberry Pi and Beaglebone Black using the RPi.GPIO and Adafruit_BBIO libraries.

    And now it works.

    I´ll make a Video to show what I did.

    Can I use this new virtual.adafruit.library in my Repo?

    I get after starting my script this Error in KODI.log

    EXCEPTION Thrown (PythonToCppException) : -->Python callback/script returned the following error<--

    - NOTE: IGNORING THIS CAN LEAD TO MEMORY LEAKS!

    Error Type: <type 'exceptions.ImportError'>

    Error Contents: No module named Adafruit_GPIO.SPI

    Traceback (most recent call last):

    File "/storage/.kodi/addons/http://script.silentservice.xbmc/LCD.py", line 27, in <module>

    import Adafruit_GPIO.SPI as SPI

    ImportError: No module named Adafruit_GPIO.SPI

    -->End of Python script error report<--

    i do need the Adafruit_GPIO.SPI

    ok. I changed the driver path to .config where the driver is now I get this

    LibreELEC:~ # LCDd -c /storage/.config/LCDd.conf

    sock_create_inet_socket: cannot bind to port 13666 at address 127.0.0.1 - Address already in use

    sock_init: error creating socket - Address already in use

    Critical error while initializing, abort.

    Hello,

    i have a SSD1306 Adafruit OLED 128x64 4pin GPIO

    But I didn't´get it to work.

    Can anyone help please?

    It is so complicated

    LibreELEC:~ # LCDd -c /storage/.config/LCDd.conf

    Could not open driver module /usr/lib/lcdproc/hd44780.so: /usr/lib/lcdproc/hd44780.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

    Driver [hd44780] binding failed

    Could not load driver hd44780

    There is no output driver

    Critical error while initializing, abort.

    LibreELEC:~ # i2cdetect -y 1

    And here is my LCDd.conf

    #KeepAliveDisplay=0

    # If you experience occasional garbage on your display you can use this

    # option as workaround. If set to a value bigger than null it forces a
