Since no one else has said anything yet, I figured I would at least try a tiny bit to help.

I had previously read a thread (which of course I am unable to find now), where someone had asked the same thing. Basically there are two parts:

1.) The screen has to have the same number of pins as the mpguino (it is either 8 or 16).
2.) The base code for mpguino would need to be modified to output to 4 lines instead of 2 and then re-flashed to the mpguino. I saw a different thread where someone had taken the "UINO" (base base code) and modified it for more lines, but that was from quite a few years ago.

So, it CAN be done with most of the responsibility being if the screen has the same number as pins as the PCB of the mpguino.

Sorry I don't have the links to the threads, but they are out there.
