Simply write a driver for it ;-)

Here's an explanation what LCdproc formally expects from a driver:
http://lcdproc.sourceforge.net/docs/current-dev.html#add-your-driver

The existing drivers in LCDproc's servier/drivers/ directory
should be good examples.

They cover the full range: from simple debug and text drivers to 
more complex ones.
