[Lcd4linux-devel] progress report

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

Hi LCD4Linux users and developers,

here's a short progress report: I just got the "default layout" from the 
old lcd4linux working on my MatrixOrbital unsing the new 
evaluator-style. I'm going to call this the "Next Generation" :-)

Default Layout means:

*** Linux 2.4.22 ***
i686 CPU 1024 MB RAM
Busy 13.0% [Bar]
Load  0.2  [Bar]


This means:
- a lot of framework is here
- the text widget is working
- the bar widget is working
- some basic plugins (/proc/cpuinfo, /proc/stat, ...) are working
- the MatrixOrbital Driver is working

to let more people work with the code, I'm going to port the next driver 
to the new architecture. I suppose the HD44780 is widely used, so this 
will be the next one.

If YOU don't have neither a MatrixOrbital nor a HD4470, send me a box of 
beers, and I will think over my decision :-)

stay tuned!


bye,
     Michael
