>Description:
I hereby submit a port of 'lcdproc', a driver program for the 
Matrix Orbital Serial LCD Displays.  

Fetch http://www.freebsd.org/~dwhite/lcdproc-0.3.4.tar.gz for the port.

lcdproc runs a 'top' like display on the units, which connect easily to any PC with a serial port (or I2C bus for those of you who like I2C).  Information on the devices can be found at http://www.matrix-orbital.com/.

You can buy the units from LinuxCentral at http://www.linuxcentral.com/.
The LCDProc homepage is http://lcdproc.omnipotent.net/.

Since this is my first port submission I'll let someone else take a look
at it and make sure I (and portlint) didn't miss anything.  Yes, the patches are ugly hacks, I know. :)

I will submit the patches back to the author shortly.
