Unfortunately, it seems there is only a Windows version of K144XV Utility, but I can't get it to work in Wine. Even after creating a com1 symbolic link to /dev/ttyS0 in ~/.wine/dosdevices, K144XV Utility shows no serial ports. I tried the K3 Utility in Wine (rather than the linux version I normally use) and got the same lack of serial ports. Clicking "Refresh port list" didn't change things. Any help is very welcome! 73, Mike ab3ap Mike I use Crossover ( A commercial advanced version of wine with bottle format) with good success re K3 Utlity on fedora 14. http://www.codeweavers.com/account/downloads/install-crossover-pro-10.0.0.bin Good setup info here for an icom rxr software but same symlink principles; http://www.garfnet.org.uk/joomla/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=89&Itemid=16 <http://www.garfnet.org.uk/joomla/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=89&Itemid=16> Also Virtualbox http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads running xp or win7 os works very well too under any supported Linux host.
