Hello Xavier, I'm Xavier ;)

First, you must care to "reply to list" when writing to lists on SF, or
you'll reply to the last who posted. It's a common error.

I tried to define 3 rows on my HD44780 2 rows display, I don't find any
 leak. In fact, we had problems with it some time ago, as the layout FB
 is dynamically resized (at lcd4linux segfaulted). We thought it was
 fixed.
Please send us your configuration, maybe there's something wrong.

At my side, I get with top this :
  485 root      15   0  3472 1100  3344 S     1.7  0.4   0:02 lcd4linux
And the size doesn't grow.

In fact, lcd4linux went through a total rewrite, and it's not totally
bugfree=C2=A9. There's a compile option to use dmalloc to search the memo=
ry
leaks, maybe Michael can help you with it.

Virtual screens haven't been ported yet. This feature will be made =20
 with the future event interface. The event interface will handle
  input from multiple sources (display keypads, gamempad, socket, ...)
 and handle internal timers, to then call functions.
I'm sorry you'll have to wait for this to be implemented (I think it'll
be for 0.10.1).

All the Team thanks you for the regards, and for using this masterpiece
 of software ;)

Bye !
