Are you really sure it's a *USB* Display? I could not find anything 
about USB in the datasheet you provided....

I don't think so; but a driver would be very welcome...

Oh, as you got it reported by lsusb, it really seems to be a USB display :-)

But the datasheet seems not to fit the display....


Again: I'd really appreciate a driver for this display! If you need any
