I have to note that the code for VFD display was not removed from the application. It means that the xbmcOnImon might work for VFDs. However, there was no way to test it so it is without any guarantee.
I'm sorry to announce that I will not develop this application anymore. After my HDD's death, I installed XBMCbuntu and it's running like a charm when compared to the problematic Windows 7 system. All functions I need to run on HTPC (disc share, ftp and http server, utorrent, remote desktop, etc.) are available there.The only disadvantage is a poor support for LCD displays (not using all icons nor progress bar). However, I hope it will be better in the future.
Anyone can feel free to use the last version of xbmcOnImon source codes for further improvement and can send me PM with any question regarding the application. Also, if anyone is moving towards XBMCbuntu from Windows and needs some suggestions, I will help if I can.
Guess I remembered it wrong (Again, lol). Sorry for the confusion.
BlackMan, regarding the reduced functionality with the display under Linux, have you tried this?

I have bought a SSD to test an alternate (Linux / OpenELEC) XBMC install with, but lack of iMon LCD support (and doubts on some other hardware) is the only reason I'm holding off until Frodo final. Be good to know if this works as expected.
