Hi Helge.
Thanks for the reply.

 Ok. Everyone agrees that there is an error (buffer overflow 
lt_lcd_regs[LCD_MISC_CNTL]).
 Ok. Everyone agrees that this code is still needed.

Then I propose to fix this error.  :)

Unfortunately, I can't do everything by the rules, I didn't save
the chip datasheet. (I didn't think I would ever need it again.). 

Regards Denis.
