honestly I never tried. Check if 2.4 has ftdi_sio.c and whether you can
basically apply this patch
http://www.pyramid.de/d/downloads/patch-4-linux-2.6.13-14.txt
... plugging the LCD into a USB port should load the ftdi_sio.ko driver
and create a ttyUSB0 for you. If it does, this is probably going to
work.
