Hi,

I'm trying to display text on my matrix orbital LK204-7T-1U-USB-WB
(which is connected via usb) which is connected to a raspberry
pi (powered by an externaly powered usb hub).
http://www.matrixorbital.ca/manuals/LK_Series/LK204-7T-1U/LK204-7T-1U%20%28=
Rev2.0%29.pdf

Version of the package: 0.5.5-2

/etc/LCDd.conf is (shortened):
[server]
DriverPath=3D/usr/lib/lcdproc/
Driver=3DMtxOrb
Bind=3D127.0.0.1
Port=3D13666
ReportLevel=3D3
ReportToSyslog=3Dyes
User=3Dnobody
Hello=3D"owner:"
Hello=3D"[email protected]"
Hello=3D""
Hello=3D"Starting up..."
GoodBye=3D"Going down!"
GoodBye=3D""
GoodBye=3D"owner:"
GoodBye=3D"[email protected]"
WaitTime=3D1
ToggleRotateKey=3DEnter
PrevScreenKey=3DLeft
NextScreenKey=3DRight

[MtxOrb]
Device=3D/dev/ttyUSB1

Contrast=3D480
hasAdjustableBacklight=3Dno
Brightness=3D1000
OffBrightness=3D0
Speed=3D19200
keypad_test_mode=3Dno


The commands I send are:

hello
client_set -name ows
screen_add ows0
screen_set ows0 1 -name OWS -wid 20 -hgt 2 -priority foreground -heartbeat =
off -duration 127 -timeout 127 -cursor off
widget_add ows0 line1 string
widget_add ows0 line2 string
widget_set ows0 line1 1 1 "                    "
widget_set ows0 line2 1 1 "                    "
widget_set ows0 line1 1 1 "                    "
widget_set ows0 line1 1 1 "    #S: -1, DB: -1.0"
widget_set ows0 line1 1 1 "    #S: -1, DB: -1.0"
widget_set ows0 line1 1 1 "    #S: 00, DB: -1.0"
widget_set ows0 line1 1 1 "    #S: 00, DB: -1.0"
widget_set ows0 line1 1 1 "    #S: 00, DB: -1.0"

all return "success" but nothing is shown.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?

Note that the other texts (the "Hello" of the config. file and the
number of connected users) ARE shown.
