@MilhouseVH: You probably checked it, but just in case: have you tried checking the plastic "strips" that separate the copper contacts. I had a sdcard where these where so thin that they literally broke of if you rubbed the contact points the "wrong" way with your thumb. 1 or 2 had broken of without me noticing it which lead to no boot without pressure being applied. Because the plastic separators where so thin it was really hard to see. Rubbing them all of in a controlled way (using a fingernail) made the card work again. Heh
Really bad made card.. The plastic ended up breaking apart, but it still works fine.

I agree with the thread issue, this clearly ain't the place :/ however since you continued it I can say there is better sdcard connectors out there RS/Farnell. I broke my first 256MB pi sdcard connector and bought a superior one at RS and soldered on instead.

Thanks for the rbej builds!
Is anyone else having a problem with Lcdproc not working on the latest Gotham build (29 July)?

I also use a HD44780 and the lcdproc addon 2.3.0 with a modified hd44780 driver.
It generally behaves itself but with the latest Gotham build I get connection errors and then a timeout, works when I revert to the 23 July build
