many windows applications that use serial ports "just" work in Wine, just by making a symbolic link between the virtaul COM port and , for example, /dev/ttyUSB0 some applications don't. by using ttylog, I discovered that these applications seem to be able to *transmit* data, but not receive. I guess there's a bug in the WINE API/DLL that they are using. Two examples of such "non-working applications" are: -TopCom Wireless manager (utility for use with GPS/Pulse/Watch) -Bantam battery charger (logging/monitoring utility) both work fine with a /dev/ttyUSB port mouted as a COM1 in a virtual windows machine, so we know that none of these applications need a special driver to work, just to communicate with a COM port.
