[Lcdproc] Matrix Orbit GLK driver

[Eric H. Johnson]

Aarg, this was supposed to be posted to the list rather than to the
individual. 

Seann,

By buffer errors, do you mean you are overrunning the rate at which the MO
or MO driver can handle commands?

I encountered that problem with the MX400 series displays, especially at
initialization when loading up the static screens and menus. Everything
worked fine when using the curses driver, but would exceed the rate at which
the MO driver could accept commands. I added a 5ms delay between socket
communications on the client side and the problem went away. I have not
looked into fixing it in the driver.

Regards,
Eric


       I have a GLK19264-7T-1U-GW-E from Matrix Orbital, and am running
LCDproc version 0.5.2. I posted this to the list a while back and the
problems I am seeing with the LCD deals with buffers between my LCD and the
driver software. Now, I don't know if anyone has worked on the driver code
or not, so I want to verify this before I start working to get it working
with this. If it hasn't been worked on, what would be best to make sure this
is good code, and checked out for this driver? I am not very good at C, or
much programming, but since this is a small driver that I have access to
both ends of the connection, hardware docs, hardware, and software. This way
as well I can get a good driver out for release if that is needed.


    If anyone can help me out with this, I would appreciate it.
