Problems with 18F458

[Felch]

Btw. I noticed, that when I short the x-tal pins with my finger, the text gets on it's right place, but as soon as I remove my finger it gets back to the blinking at the start of line 1.

Haa, this might explain everything! What's your clock freq.? Too high possibly. Anyway, I'll take a look at the code now.

Did you know that sub delay100 actually delays only 1,4 ms!!! ? Otherwise code works OK (on PIC18F452). You must add delays:
- before initializing LCD, about 100mS (use MPLAB-s simulator to check time)
- delay about 2mS after sending cmd or data to LCD (in the lib file)
See code.
