[DSTAR_DIGITAL] ID1 Software Under Linux with Wine

2009-08-02 Thread Louis Cashmer
All,

I am hoping someone else has been down this or a similar road. I have already 
checked out the Wine forums. I have an ID1 and I am trying to get the ICOM ID1 
control software under Linux. The gui looks great but I can not communicate via 
the Ubuntu 9.04 X64 system.

I have determine that the ID1 uses an internal FTDI chip.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks, but the ID1 software doesn't use comm ports, it uses USB ports. You can 
actually plug a USB cable into an ID1. I truly appreciate the response, but 
that won't do it.

Ah, I stand corrected. One should never assume. I thank everyone who is trying 
to help here. Thanks to Pierre I am making a lot of progress, but still don't 
have it working. :-( Tomorrow is another day and I'll have a fresh look at all 
the posts in this thread.

I was right, with a fresh set of eyes, I was able to get my ID1 to work under 
Ubuntu 64 with Wine. Pierre, you were very patient and very helpful. Thanks to 
everyone who replied.

John, you should definitely be able to get yours working from the info here.
