Well I spent several hours on this now.  I do see the format is wrong, I 
changed to:

loadusr -W wj200_vfd  baud=19200 

But I've got it on a scope and it's still 9600 baud.  And if I change it to 
"baud=hahahhaha", there's no error for it being a non-number either.

Could the wj200_vfd code have a bug in accepting arguments?
