Yes. I also have some of these and the need to make them work! At the fest before last, I got a VFD to respond to a userspace linux program written in C (it came originally from here: http://pes.free.fr/ ). I had to patch it up a bit to make the 2001 code compile on a 2006 system, but it basically worked. I think I want to re-implement this as a Python user space HAL module as described in Chapter 10 of the HAL User Manual. Python has a good serial communication library, so it looks possible.
