I have lcdproc working on the Hiper box which uses the DM-140GINK  
Demo. I can't remember if I used a patch, or the lastest version of  
lcdproc. I remember setting the compiler to use DEMO or something like  
that for the vfd type. The only other thing I had to change was the  
function that accessed the USB HID device. It was using the 2.4 kernel  
location so I changed it to the 2.6 kernel location and it started  
working. I will check when I get home.
