[Lcdproc] Any updates on the mplay driver for lcrpoc on a Zalman HD135 ?

[Dave]

Hi,

Anyone have the lcd working on a Zalman HD135 case ?

Perusing thru previous posts  it appears that this is a HD44780 device 
with a lis2 protocol but i can't for the life of me get mine to work. 
The LCDd daemon loads and runs without errors, and shows connections 
(from lcdproc client or mythtv) and commands being recieved but the 
display stays in the bootup state with the default original Zalman logo.

I have made sure /dev/ttyUSB0 is the right device and i get data from 
the character device (using dd or cat) when i press keys on the included 
remote control, so i know it is alive, but nothing with LCDd.

The device is attached using the Future Tech Devices ftdi_sio serial usb 
driver. I'm wondering if i need some strange baud setting to get this 
working.

I have actually bought another external IR device so i can control 
mythtv, but having a static logo display on the VFD is worrying me about 
burn-in. My last resort would be to disable it physically from the bus, 
but it'd be nice to have it working, if even for just a clock.

Willing to try anything or help in any way by providing any debug output.

Alternatively anyone who has this case can recommend a alternate display 
i can buy which will fit this case without much screwdrivers and glue ?

Thanks
D
