First a little info:
OS: Win98SE
Plugin Ver: 0.6.3 alpha, default timings
LCD: Optrex DMC24201 in parallel 8 bit mode
Ampire AC402AY in parallel 8 bit mode

Everything is running fine, both LCDs do whatever I want them to do, and I can control the backlights as well. However, I can't get the parallel keypad working, either direct or matrix. When I set up the standard keyboard, it works fine, but then when I try to use the parallel keypad (on the same port as the LCD) it does nothing. I've confirmed that the port is reading the change on the input lines, but the plugin doesn't respond. Anyone have any suggestions? I'm currently using a separate plugin for remote control, but I'd like to get rid of it because it is a huge resource hog. Thanks.

  After the 0.6.4 release I'll look into parallel input.
  It definitely looks like that there's something wrong with it...
