This build should do the trick for MythDora 10.21:

For your device, I believe you actually need the imonlcd2 lcdproc 
driver, if you've got a 0.5.2 lcdproc build. For the 0.5.3 lcdproc 
build, you need the imonlcd driver, with Protocol=1. (it was an 
out-of-tree patch or two in 0.5.2, finally merged in 0.5.3).

For my 15c2:0045 w/lcdproc 0.5.3, LCDd.conf contains:
...
Driver=imonlcd
...
[imonlcd]
Device=/dev/lcd0
Contrast=200
OnExit=2
Protocol=1

Yeah, unrelated.
