Again, any help greatly > appreciated. For direct port access first you must run as root, second you must include the ports in your .wine/config file. Something like: [ports] "read" = "0x278-0x27a,0x378-0x37a" "write" = "0x278-0x27a,0x378-0x37a" Adding --debugmsg +int,+io will give you details which ports the program tries to read/write Rein. -- Rein Klazes rklazes@xs4all.nl _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@winehq.com http://www.winehq.com/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
