[Noisebridge-discuss] First e-mail, and an LCD question

[Mitch Altman]

Hello, Michael,

 

 

I'm just catching up with emails after my travels (amazingly, there are still 491 emails to look at for the past 8 days!), and saw your post.

 

 

It is totally OK to ask questions on the discuss list.  Feel free to ask specific questions.  (And feel free to ignore a lot of the traffic on the email list!)

 

 

You are also welcome to come by Noisebridge any time, as there are almost always people there working and playing on projects, or just hanging out, and the odds are decent that there may be someone who can help you out with your project.

 

 

Are you also aware of the SF-Microcontroller Club?  It's another group of friendly people you may be interested in.  We meet every time someone wants to have a meeting.  To join, just sign up for the yahoo group:

http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/SFmicrocontrollers/

 

 

I look forward to meeting you sometime (if we haven't already).

 

 

Cheers,

 

Mitch.

Hi all -

Just heard about Noisebridge and am excited to get involved.  Hope I'm not doing something incredibly uncouth in sending a question, or sending a question in my first e-mail.

Specifically, my current project includes trying to get some info displaying on an HD44780 LCD with a PIC16F690 microcontroller, using some code I'm trying to compile with HI-TECH's compiler.  I'm having a bit of trouble, and think it's probably in my timing.  If anyone on the list feels confident with this sort of thing, it'd be forever indebted if we could meet up and check this out together.

Feel free to admonish me as necessary if this is not the place for this sort of request.

Best,
Mike
