Does anyone have a code for this LCD that is up to date with Arduino 1.0.2? I bought one off of Amazon, and (didn't come with its own shiftout cable) and apparently there are no official libraries for this display. Any that I can find online cause Arduino 1.0.2 to blow up with error messages.

If you believe something is right, you won't see what's wrong (David Straker).

I just bought a sainsmart 12864 from Amazon and was lucky enough to stumble onto Brad's *duino blog at
http://bradsduino.blogspot.com/2012/11/sainsmart-12864-graphic-lcd-display.html
He got me started with the 12864 in just a few minutes. 

Copy his real simple script and wire your Arduino to the 12864 with 5 female-to-male jumpers as his blog indicates. 
Download the u8glib from the link Oliver provided, and store it in your Arduino library folder. 

I just ran the code and it worked.  It got me started. 

Thanks, Oliver, for posting the link to (your) fabulous u8glib.  I'm exploring it now, finding some very nice touches.
