Comment 5 for bug 517956

I've patched a 5ms exit delay into the send_packet() function in lirc_imon in current lirc cvs (and in the merged-upstream-in-2.6.35 imon driver). The microsecond delays were a bit on the low side. This 5ms delay doesn't show any functional regressions on any of the three imon devices I've got, and does indeed fix garbage displaying on my own 0x0044 (Antec Veris Elite) VFD -- a problem that only cropped up with the latest motherboard in this system, its been just fine w/all other motherboards (*only* the motherboard was changed in this system, all other components are identical to a prior setup where the VFD behaved just fine). lirc 0.8.7 should be released within a week or three, and will carry this fix (as does the imon driver in 2.6.35+).
