Wine and USB 2.0 Support

[brokencrystal]

Does anyone know if the team is working on a version of wine with USB support? I would like to get my Microsoft Zune to work under Linux. If I could get the Zune software installed under Wine and have access to my USB 2.0 ports, this just might work... If they are not currently working on this... Can I put in a request and where?

If you look at their newsletter usb support is one of the things that they are looking at working on.

Any advamce on this? Does anyone know? A link would be helpful - a search on USB seems to turn up pretty much everything but connecting to USB devices in Wine!

any update on this? Apearently its possible with the patches there by Alexander Morozov applied; In the following website:

http://wiki.winehq.org/USB

Anybody give it a go? I'd imagine if you have to go into the wine registry and fix and apply patches it would be fairly difficult.

I tried about a month ago, but unfortunately I couldn't get the patches to work.

Wonderful job. It works.

Was there anything special that you had to do to get it to work, or did you just follow those instructions verbatim?

Edit:
I saw that he modified the text files that need to be applied, but I can't download them as they don't seem to be up anymore. So, could you upload the copies of these two files since I can't access them:

git clone git://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git ~/wine-git
cd ~/wine-git

sudo apt-get build-dep wine
sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev

git branch usb-1.1.28 wine-1.1.28
git checkout usb-1.1.28
wget ftp://ftp.etersoft.ru/pub/people/amorozov/usb/1.1.28/0001-Add-support-of-native-Windows-drivers-for-USB-tokens.txt
wget ftp://ftp.etersoft.ru/pub/people/amorozov/usb/1.1.28/0002-Re-generate-some-files.txt
git am 0001-Add-support-of-native-Windows-drivers-for-USB-tokens.txt 0002-Re-generate-some-files.txt
./tools/make_makefiles
./configure
make depend
make
make install

That should work.

Hi futaris,

I started to implement your instructions....everything was going fine until I entered 'git branch usb-1.1.28 wine-1.1.28' where I got this error message 'fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git'

Where has it gone wrong??

Thanx........nuffy
