Re: anyone else use the I2C bus?
We tried to use an I2C LCD from New Haven to work also, but unfortunately we weren't ever able to get it to work and gave up due to time constraints. I had noticed the same quirk with the I2C API on that, but it seems like we weren't ever able to initialize the device correctly or something.
We ended up doing our menu using using the DriverStation LCD when that ability was released, and thats worked for our needs perfectly.
Of course, now that I have my embedded web server working on the bot, I'm not quite as interested in the LCD at this point. Probably should try again though...
