[lcd4linux] Almost HD44780 Compatible?

[Ognjen B. <og...@ma...>]

Ok I got lcd4linux working, but my lcd display does not display "full 
blocks" but rather an inverted "P", this is not an lcd4linux error as it 
occured with lcdproc as well, but lcd4linux's ability to use custom 
characters could prove useful.

a (rather large) picture can be found here: 
http://www.ogijeovde.homelinux.net/crap/dsc00970.jpg  showing the "P" on 
the bargraph

(note the garbled row3 has been fixed since I took that picture)


What can I do to get a full block? if it is just a case of the full 
block being in a different memory location on the lcd then it would just 
require a modification to the lcd4linux driver, but if my lcd does not 
have a full block (i.e. it was replaced with the "P") then probably i 
would need to define a custom character as a full block and use that 
instead.

Any ideas on how I could accomplish this?
