Re: WINE and com ports.
First you'll want to figure out what device your serial converter is. It should be something like /dev/ttyUSB0. If you plug in the converter, and then run dmesg in terminal, it should pick it up and list its location. If not, we'll have to find some drivers for it.
Next, wine handles com ports by having a link to the device (ie /dev/ttyUSB0), in the ~/.wine/dosdevices folder. This link would be created as follows:
Code:
ln -s /dev/ttyUSB0 ~/.wine/dosdevices/com1
With that it might work, although there could be some issues with permissions, but if it doesn't work the first time hope is not lost.
