I got my hands on the new Monochrome OLED graphic display from Adafruit. I absolutely love it. This is a great addition to my gadgets.

My main dev board is FEZ Panda from GHI Electronics. It is a .Net Micro Framework device with a great set of features. I looked for a managed driver for the display and couldn’t find any, so I have ported the arduino library that is provided by Adafruit.

It didn’t work from the first try. I have arduino board as well, so I have tried the orginal library with no success. I almoust got to the point of returning the display, but decided to take a closer look and found that there were two bridges on some pins at the back of the display board.

I have “fixed” the bridges with a hobby knife and my driver worked right away!
