[lcd4linux] lcd4linux-0.9.11 released!

[Michael R. <re...@eu...>]

Hi list,

I just decided to release 0.9.11, because I only got positive feedback 
to the beta 0.9.11-pre1 release.

What's new in 0.9.11:

- Icons! Hearbeat! Animations!
- HD44780 4-bit-mode (thanks to Martin Hejl)
- double-buffering with all drivers (should improve performance and 
lower CPU usage a lot!)
- improved HD44780 timings


What next:

- another attempt to solve the shared library and libtool issues
- internal redesign, switch from "rows" to "widgets", which will allow 
much more flexible tokens

- and, most important, improved MatrixOrbital Drivers! I received a 
parcel from them yesterday, containing a MX211 and a LK204-24-USB. These 
displays (with a lot of additional gimmicks) have been donated by Henry 
Jakl from MatrixOrbital. Thanks!


So, stay tuned and have fun!
