The USB version uses an USB to serial converter from Prolific (PL2303) with VendorID 0x067b and ProductID 0x2303. The Linux Kernel 2.6 support this with the module pl2303. It demands 500mA, so you need an active powered USB port. The really cool fact with their displays is that the whole thing is mounted into a half-height 5 1/4 drive bay: Character LCD with Keypad:
