Working on displaying text to screen
I am starting work on displaying text on the pv2 screen. If anyone has started work on this already they could pm me what they have so far. Also, if anyone has a FIRMWARE.COMMENTS file that is newer than the one in the devkit, I'd greatly appreciate receiving it in a pm. I do not have the 6410 camera, so it'd be great to get the comments file that is in the process of being updated for the 6550 firmware. Thanks.

I saw Morcheeba played with this a long time ago, but I can't find any posts on it (maybe back on the old linux-hacker.net forums?) I remember a picture of "top" (or similar, linux process monitor) showing on the PV2 screen, but the character generation may have been done on the PC and sent as a .TFT (?) Hopefully he will pop in here with some more / correct info :)
