I found someone using a cheap USB to Ethernet adapter as a dmx controller:

I don't know for sure if it works or if it's lacking any important feature, but since DMX uses the same protocol (RS485) it seems a plausible solution.

Coming to pd, I have no clear idea... a similar solution as Martin Peach's one, based on comport? Can comport be used with an "ethernet" output? Or is there any way to communicate through that ethernet output at a lower level?

I got an open usb dmx and I haven't been able to get it working on linux. I think I will try with the raspberry pi but can it be controlled via pd?

Also the patch Martin Peach shared can be used with the open dmx usb on linux? do I need driver?

Thanks for the help, I am really confused here.
