I'm not familiar with Open CPN, so don't know if it tells you (or you had to tell it) the Linux name of the device it's using -- if not the next thing would be to examine the dmesg and/or browse through /dev to find it. Then you need to create a symlink in the prefix (.wine directory), pointing to that device, so that wine can find it. I remember seeing details somewhere in the wine documentation, and I *expect* that winecfg can do this, but have not had occasion to do it myself.
