I've installed through wine the program for a gps data logger QSTARZ. The program works fine with wine, but cannot dowmnload the data from the gps because I only have a windows driver for it. Any way to get the windows driver installed in linux so that I could download the data?

In that case you system should find and install driver automatically or you'll need to help it. And AppDB seems to have someone running it: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=10016 So the only thing you'll need to do is to run this command: Code: ln -s /dev/ttyUSB0 ~/.wine/dosdevices/com3
