Ok i know ive asked this question before but i havnt found a solution..so im going to ask again!

Is there any way i can take advantage of the VFD in my case...My case is a thermaltake mozart sx and it came with the Soundgraph imon software. This software enabled my pc to display various info on a vfd!

Does anyone know how i can utilize this in gutsy?

Hoping someone can help!!!

I'm sure I had a look last time and couldn't find anything. What sort of connection is it?

I was going to suggest, if it's serial (rather than USB) could you try sending random stuff to /dev/ttySX (replace X with the serial port it's connected to, e.g ttyS0 for Serial Port 1, ttyS1 for Serial Port 2 etc).

Other than that, have you tried the manufacturer?

Might be worth a shot?
