Please Check first this for the LDC Pin_ -Out. via Spartan 3E Board .
http://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/boards_and_kits/ug334.pdf
So you need to get the source code for LCD via FPGA ...
Good Luck.

This is the hint for source code via FPGA to LCD.

May other users help to get the source code.
But first you must know the SPARTAN 3E PIN-Out via FPGA<-->LCD.
see (UCF) File..

Do you use VHDL or Verilog? .

May other find the ORGINAL SPRARTAN 3E Stock Firmware Reference File for 
the Project on Spartan 3E Board.
Greetings Holger.

Here is a Video that shows how LCD via FPGA works .
And you can watch the part of the source code.

I will look for the orginal SPRATAN 3E source code and Project File,
wich is on the Board when its delivered.
Can anyone find it ?

Greetings Holger.

Program LCD on Spartan-3E, Verilog/FPGA (TestLCD)

Trap:
Please notice exact the sfr_bit set fixed to 1 to disable the Stata 
FLASH
Device wich is also part of the´shared BUS via LCD.
See code review , see FPGA OUTPUT-PORT SFR == 1.

Can you put the orginal Stock Software thats delivered with Board
as bitfile on,
that you can see if the LCD Hardware is working anyway ?
Trap:
adjust contrast through trim pot.
(may you Trim-Pot is not ok)

check the Pinning there.  See map
There is the VHDL Code you can download after registration.

Can you write a Test-Bench to Simulate it on eg.
ModelSim  Simulator?.

Here is the code for VHDL
-- Description:    16x2 Text LCD controller for 8bit Mode
--                 used on the Spartan-3A Starter development board

But keep the special Pin at the Strata Flash at permanent High.

It is shared with the LCD Bus.
