Hello, first of all congratulations on reversing all of this! I have recently installed TrueNAS on my PR4100, I was looking around for a script to manage buttons and lcd and I found this which kind of works after a few fixes I made thanks to your documentation of the pmc. What OS are you currently using the daemon for? Have you tested it for TrueNAS/FreeNas? I would like to get it going on my machine and maybe contribute to the readme/wiki with the steps to install it. Let me know what you think, and again thank you for your quality work!

My target OS is Debian/Linux. Not sure how hard it would be to port to a BSD based OS. I would expect that some of the device probing will certainly need to be adapted.

Hey Michael, to continue this subject a bit. I have been using TrueNAS CORE for several years. It was based on FreeBSD. However, I just migrated to the newer TrueNAS SCALE which is based on Debian Linux. Future development is now on Linux and has moved away from FreeBSD. That being said, I was using the above mentioned post initialization script to obtain hardware control of my PR4100. That script no longer works on the Linux based SCALE. I found your page and wondering if there is a way to incorporate it into the new TruesNAS SCALE environment on my PR4100?
