I have installed Wine 1.1.9 on a PC running openSUSE 11.1. Apparently, all seems ok, I can run winefile, regedit, winecfg. I have installed an application which makes use of an USB port. The installation was ok. When I run this application, I get the following message: fixme:win:RegisterDeviceNotificationA (hwnd=0x1002a, filter=0xa0fc64,flags=0x00000000), returns a fake device notification handle! As I am new to wine, I do not know how to fix this problem.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If it's just that error, you can safely ignore it. -- -Austin
The application I use is CDLib to control a DACAL CD library storage device. It is connected via USB. When I launch the application, a small window with the following text appears: "Please turn on the power of machine and connect to PC, or program will stop after 10 seconds" and the program ends. It seems that it can not recognize the device on the USB port. I have tried all versions of Windows, but the problem is always the same.

If that is true, then the old map device in Linux and then map the device to a drive in Wine may work as well. Since I don't have answers to these questions I'm not certain if this effort is not worth persuing further. James McKenzie
