Not for very much longer ...

I will remove the file lcdproc.conf from the scripts scripts/ subdir in tjhe

source as well as the references in the lcdproc-*.in files in the same
directory.

It did not get removed when lcdproc got the ability to parse it's own config

file.

What about your original problem, the blinking backlight ?
