I have an Olympus camera which communicates with the software through a special cable connected to COM2:. The software works in WINE, but it won't communicate with the camera, it says my COM: settings are wrong, but I've tried changing settings to about every combination possible with no luck. Any ideas? Has anyone gotten this type of camera to work in WINE? Thanks, BIll K.

It's still beta, but good enough for casual use, at least in my experience with a Kodak DC-240. -- Rod Smith, rodsmith@rodsbooks.com rodsbooks.com Author of books on Linux & multi-OS configuration
