Intel Galileo LCD problem

Using Arduino Sensors
1

Hi, I have been trying to get an Intel Galileo to display the LCD example "Hello world". All that I get is black squares and no text at all.

I have used the exact same code and wired it the exact same way on an Arduino UNO and it works perfectly.

I cant figure out what could be wrong?

Below is the code I am using.. any suggestions would be great!

#include <LiquidCrystal.h>

// initialize the library with the numbers of the interface pins
LiquidCrystal lcd(12, 11, 5, 4, 3, 2);

void setup() {
  // set up the LCD's number of columns and rows: 
  lcd.begin(20, 4);
  // Print a message to the LCD.
  lcd.print("Hello world");
}

void loop() {
  // set the cursor to column 0, line 1
  // (note: line 1 is the second row, since counting begins with 0):
  lcd.setCursor(0, 1);
  
}

Have you adjusted the display using a pot so that it is not displaying squares when it is just turned on?

Have you tried to move setCursor() function to setup()??
Try this:

#include <LiquidCrystal.h>

LiquidCrystal lcd(12, 11, 5, 4, 3, 2);

void setup() {
  lcd.begin(20, 4);
  lcd.setCursor(0, 1);
  lcd.print("Hello world");
}

void loop() {
  
}
