It is not wine bug - it is hardware+kernel related.
Another windows application (WSwin, shareware from http://www.pc-wettersation.de) is able to talk to the interface from within wine, so the COM-port in general seems to be functional. Besides, it's a WINE error message...
Additional information: http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2009-February/073573.html shows more on the reason for the error.

USB connection?

Hello
By coincidence I've found this potential alternative solution for my meteostation IROX ProX2 which connects to the PC via USB2 port only. My actual solution works within a Virtualbox with Virtualbxextension both on SUSE LINUX 12.1 as well as the virtualbox extension for the WIN part. WsWin writes the updates via Massmedia connection within Virtualbx directly to the directory served by APACHE webserver. Does anyone know, if the USB ports are supported within WINE without any restrictions? WINE could probably save me the memory and diskspace I've reserved for Virtualbox.
