EAC can not access the hardware directly on Windows (nothing can) - that is the whole point of having a Hardware Abstraction Layer. I'm pretty sure it is dependent on ASPI which does all the hard work. Wine is not a virtual machine, but just a layer that maps Windows system calls to Linux ones. Assuming the calls required by EAC/ASPI have been mapped then it should work exactly the same on Linux/Wine as it does on Windows... ...Of course that's all just theory! -- Browny http://www.last.fm/user/BrownySV/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Browny's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2295 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=37590 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
