--------------------------------
Warning: version 0.2 and higher is updated for 
         avr-libc-1.0.4
	 It will no longer compile with
	 avr-libc-20011208 !!!!
	 The two avr-libc libraries are too different
	 to be able to write compatible code.
	 Use version 0.1 if you want to 
	 utilize the older avr-libc versions.
--------------------------------
This is the software for a USB LCD panel with 2 buttons, 1 LED, and
a watchdog

The eagle schematic and board files for the hardware are included
in the hardware directory.

The panel can be totally controlled via ascii commands over the
USB bus (see README.commands)

Installation:
You need the GCC avr development environment if you want to build
the entire software. What you need is described in:
http://linuxfocus.org/English/November2004/article352.shtml

!!! Please read http://linuxfocus.org/English/March2003/article286.shtml
!!! for complete documentaion about the software/hardware

If you do not want to install the full environment then you can
use the pre-compiled avr code. You download it to the AVR uC with the
command:
make loadprebuild

Use this command to only test the led:
make loadtest

To build and download the code use the command:
make load

In both cases you need an installation of the uisp programmer software.
Uisp needs the following kernel modules (2.4.x kernel):
modeprobe parport
modeprobe parport_pc
modeprobe ppdev
