Hi,

please verify that:

a) You are using the correct LCDd.conf.
b) The 'DriverPath' option in LCDd.conf is set correctly.

The line 'Could not open driver module server/drivers/curses.so: File
not found' indicated the DriverPath option is not set correctly to the
path where the driver files got installed.

Regards,
Markus
