CFA633 USB and Linux 2.4.20 quick start ?

Anyone with a 'Howto-get-the-simpliest-program' running for Linux 2.4.20 in combination with the 633 USB version ?

I'am seeking a small tutorial, with a small test program to get a 'Hello World' on my display and to read the keys pressed.

Here is a link for the USB under Linux:

Here is a simple Linux command-line 633 demo program:

That should be a pretty good start. The LCDproc mailing list is also a pretty good resource:

It has archives here:

Thanks,

Apparantly the 633 is NOT supported by default.
I have patched the kernel (ftdi_sio) driver to
make it work.
I have forwarded this patch to webbastards.com, so it can be shared with others.

Everything seems to work fine now.
The quick 1-2-3 is:
# Linux 2.4.20
=> apply patch to ftdi_sio.c and ftdi_sio.h
# enable USB support
# enable Serial Convertors
# General convertor + FTDI convertor
# Kernel make -> install

# modprobe usb-uhci
=> display will light up (factory default message)
# modprobe ftdi_sio
=> should say usb device mapped to ttyUSB0

# modify Very Simple CrystalFontz test program
=> change 'ttyS0' to 'ttyUSB0'

# ./make
# ./test633

voila

Thanks for the instructions. We appreciate you sharing your success.
