USB serial LCD backpack / Newbe. Serial connection on Raspberry pi
Hi neighbours and friends.

I have an HD44780 connected to the GPIO pins of my raspberry pi, with an OpenELEC distro for it and running fine. The one thing I don't like is having so many wires messing up in the back of my TV, so I purchased this module to drive the LCD through USB.
My problem now is that LCDproc only drives Matrix Orbital devices via serial port. So My questions are:

1. Does anybody knows about a driver for LCDproc to drive USB MtxOrb?

2. If not, how can I connect the backpak via serial port to the RaspI? So I can avoid several wires and the protoboard circuit.

Thanks in advance!!
