hi all, i have managed to get my application (step 7 microwin) running perfectly under wine: the real trouble was just getting past the installation, since setupapi and setupx aren't fully implemented in wine yet. anyway, this application is something of a programming environment for an S7, which is a programmable controlling unit (to operate different machines). i can hook up the S7 to my computer via serial port cable, and this works without problems straight out of wine. the S7 also has an ethernet jack so that i could connect it to my PC via ethernet cable. under windows, i simply load the program, then choose the connection method, and, if an ethernet adapter is installed, i can select it... which is my problem under wine: i have no ethernet adapter "installed" as i would have it under windows, and since this device is not present, i can't select it. ah, so the question really is: how can i "trick" the application into thinking an ethernet adapter is present? as far as i know, the app only requires the device driver to be present, and doesn't require any additional protocols (such as TCP/IP)... any ideas or suggestions? thanks for the help in advance. matthias _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
