Hi James, Hi List,
[I'm cc:ing this to the list again, because I'd need some help from
other CrystalFontz users]
you had this problem:
>I'm having a problem though... I'm sure it's with the way I've got
>things configured...
>
>I'm using a CrystalFontz 634 by the way..
>
>When scrolling, the new line does not clear the previous line. If the

>line, say has data that goes half way, the data from the previous line

>If I have a line that reads:

>Up: 21 days 19:54

>Which then scrolls up one line and the new line at the bottom reads:

I Asked you for your lcd4linux.conf, here it is:
> Display 634
> Port /dev/lcd
> #Speed 9600
> Backlight 100
> Rows 5
> Scroll 1
> Turn 10000
>
>
> x1 uptime.pl
> Row1 %x1
> Row2 "Busy %cb%% $r10cs+cb"
> Row3 "Disk%dm $R10dr+dw"
> Row4 "Net %nm $R10nr+nw"
> Row5 "CPU Temp: %s1c"
> #Row6 "Load%l1%L$r10l1"
>
> Tick 100
> Tack 500
> Tau 500

I had to modify it a bit to meet the needs of my MatrixOrbital. But the
problem does not arise here. Maybe because I don't have your
"uptime.pl". Could you please provide this script, too?
herp [author of the crystalfontz driver], anywhere out there? Your email
adress is invalid...
If all doesn't help, I'm afraid I have to rewrite the crystalfontz
driver. It's the only driver not using the "general bar" functions. And
I have to admit that I don't really understand herp's code here :-(
bye, Michael
