QNAP TS-877 Truenas Journal

For LCD fix

  1. if your qnap model has a LCD, edit the truenas script with elvis fix (this was for a ts-453a, so it may need some possible editting)
    GitHub - elvisimprsntr/QnapFreeLCD: Scripts to display TrueNAS CORE information on QNAP LCD.

What does this do? Well here is an example

This is before (lcd can’t turn off and remains static 24/7). basically after installing truenas it breaks the LCD and makes it act like this. Some people suggested taping it over with dark tape, but i think we can do better :wink:

after applying fix, it shows this after finishing bootup, then it turns off. Perfection :face_with_monocle:

basically you had to go into truenas commandline to apply the fix

all credits to elvis for solving the lcd issue. he is a truenas resident here
