invalid conversion from 'const uint8_t* {aka const unsigned char*}' to 'const char*' [-fpermissive]

When compiling I get the following error:

This report would have more information with "Show verbose output during compilation" option enabled in File -> Preferences. `

I fixed this by cleaning up my libraries: Now using only OLEDSSD1306-_SH1106 by Stefan Frings, Fabio Durigon and have no errors anymore.

Yep, that fixed it.

Thanks!
