ok. what other rows I need to comment? Row number 1225 didn't resolve problem, LCD doesn't works.

Just keep commenting out whatever lines throw exceptions from client.py until it works. Basically anything with glut. This must be a new version of glut because it never caused problems before.

The lcd wasn't really intended for use with openplotter, but it is of course possible. I will correct it for the next version.

If you upgrade pypilot from git, the problem is fixed.

The instructions are for tinypilot, you will have to adapt for openplotter.

I made as here has been written. Lirc service is started successfull, irw shows right but pypilot doesn't communicate with lirc:

pi@openplotter:~ $ pypilot_lcdclient nokia5110
have gpio for raspberry pi
no lirc available
init...
using nokia511
e.t.c.

how to repair this one?

[sapers]

I made next steps:
>sudo apt install python-lirc python-pylirc
afer that I see:
pi@openplotter:~ $ pypilot_lcdclient nokia5110
have gpio for raspberry pi
have lirc for remote control
init...
using nokia5110
loading load config file: /home/pi/.pypilot/lcdclient.conf
failed to load config file: /home/pi/.pypilot/lcdclient.conf
pypilot: could not open config files /home/pi/.lircrc and /etc/lirc/lircrc
pypilot: No such file or directory
failed to initialize lirc. is .lircrc missing?
connected

but pressing to any key doesdn't make results. Nothing effect.
software irw shows successful recognizing remote control's keys:

pi@openplotter:~ $ irw
0000000008f7807f 00 KEY_POWER remote
0000000008f700ff 00 KEY_SELECT remote
0000000008f740bf 00 KEY_MUTE remote
0000000008f7708f 00 KEY_RIGHT remote
0000000008f748b7 00 KEY_LEFT remote
0000000008f78877 00 KEY_UP remote
0000000008f7a857 00 KEY_DOWN remote

where is my mistake?
