Subject: [lcd4linux] HD44780 20x2 only shows 8 characters
Hello,
I'm trying a new lcd display, this time a CrystalFontz CFAH2002Y-PDI-ET (HD44780 compatible).
The problem is that it only shows 8 characters on line 1. If I send it more than 8 characters, nothing will show.
Also, can't get any widget to display on line 2.
the log and conf file are:
0# lcd4linux -Fvvq -f lcd4linux.conf
