Hello forum, I would like to run wine with USB support without compiling it myself. Is there a .deb file out there ? (I am runnung Ubuntu 11.04 and 11.11 with 32bit) Or do we have to wait for wine 1.4 ? Is there a release date for 1.4 ? greetings Roland

http://wiki.winehq.org/WineReleaseCriteria If you look at that page, you'll see that USB support for iTunes is a release criterion. This may not mean, that every USB device will be supported, some of them which need to install windows drivers probably will not work. also see http://wiki.winehq.org/USB
What I am actually looking for is USB support for Lego mindstorm robolab. I managed to get a running version af robolab 2.9 with wine1.3.28. Just transfering Data to the Lego Mindstorm Brick is not working as I cannot choose USB from the connection list. That was really close to "apt-get remove windows", but as long I cannot run robolab on a linux system I have to use windows on this machine. Roland
