Unfortunately the PicoLCD 2X20 and 4X20 devices present themselves as HID devices. I filed PR usb/128803 and attached a patch which quirks the device, so that it doesn't get attached to by the HID driver (Thus making it available to libusb). It can be found at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=128803 . It would be awesome if this would get committed on CURRENT and possibly MFC'ed... :) Cheers, Andy PS: I have the magic to get the 4X20 working on OSX too, if anyone is interested. /* Andre Guibert de Bruet * 436f 6465 2070 6f65 742e 2042 6974 206a */ /* Managing Partner * 6f63 6b65 792e 2053 7973 4164 6d69 6e2e */ /* GSM: +1 734 846 8758 * 2055 4e49 5820 736c 6575 7468 2e00 0000 */ /* WWW: siliconlandmark.com * C/C++, Java, Perl, PHP, SQL, XHTML, XML */Received on Thu Jan 15 2009 - 15:15:02 UTC
