Every piece of docs I have on that module must be accessed using an 
underscore, but in the manpage/docs, I now see that all the examples do 
use a hyphen. There should, if thats the case, be more consistency.

I'll fix that, but I just scanned thru the 700 some page lcnc.pdf, and 
searched the wiki, for example usages, and came up empty. That is as 
Jackie said about a million times on the tv show, a revolting 
development.  I need some examples. URL's gleefully searched.

Thanks Andy.

Oh, I found the noise. The case of that little 5v 4a psu I run the pi & 
7i90 with, was not because its glued to a painted, rusty surface on the 
inside of the box lid, anywhere near ground. So it was radiating a 50 
khz wave whose edges were ringing like a school bell, so a 2.4mm screw 
about 6mm long was found, and about 13" of 1/4" wide flat braid, with a 
yellow eyelet crimped on both ends, covered in heat shrink, connecting 
its mounting side face to the main ground bolt in the box, took care of 
that.

But in watching the servo-thread with a halmeter, a histogram of that 
would certainly explain the watchdog biting, I saw one instance go by 
that was at least 10 times the watchdog timer. So I'll have to go thru 
what it starts a boot time, like the audio stuff, and kill all of that 
useless stuff.  In watching htop, I see some wicd activity as its 
looking for a radio, and its the only thing with the radio turned on.

Lots of stuff I need to get rid of...

Cheers, Gene Heskett
