Brad,

It is a HID device. 
I need to run X based applications over this LCD display.
Since X server uses /dev/fb to write to the frame buffer, I thought of 
writing a frame buffer driver that reads the buffer (allocated by the 
driver) and passes its contents to the the LCD controller over USB. 
I don't know if there is a better way to do it.

Thanks,
Manoj.
