Just a bit of a heads up, I've just forked the github repository with an eye towards fixing a number of problems I'm seeing, please feel free to pipe up if there is anything I should be aware of:
- matrix orbital model list is incomplete (in particular my model LK162B is missing)
- matrix orbital firmware version number reporting is wrong (its a single byte expected with high nibble being major and low is minor)
- a number of drivers are exhibiting problems with vbar and hbar characters (matrix orbital, glcd/x11, lis) -- the behavior is different for each so i assume this indicates driver bugs not server bugs.
I'm also doing a whole new python lcdproc module, since the current one is pretty deeply broken by design -- also available on github but its no where near feature complete, I'm more using it as a tool to flush out bargraph bugs ATM.
I am 'adicarlo' on github.
