Copied from another forum I asked on: "USB drivers do not work under WINE. This is along standing issue that don't look like it'll be solved any time soon.
The note you refer to deals with an actual USB device running under Linux. If it appears as a serial port under Linux you *should* be able to use it under WINE by connecting to the relevant pre-mapped port. The serial speed is often lowered to allow all the software to get their interupts etc in. The ID-1 has been made to work under Linux using CHIRP rather than the supplied Icom software." Thanks to Mark P for this. Hope this helps. Neil. --- In [email protected], "john_ke5c" <k...@...> wrote: > > > I am hoping someone else has been down this or a similar road.
