But drivers DO use direct hardware access (or specific kernel-level functions) and this doesn't work. This is exactly what I mean. As far as I know ASPI works in Windows with use of specific drivers (aspi32.sys and wnaspi32.dll if I remember correctly). I searched WINE dlls and now I see that WINE has wnaspi32.dll implementation (that uses Linux interface). I missed this somehow (probably because I rarely try to use WINE to access my hardware; only exception is Samsung mobile phone). Not sure how well it supposed to work but I think it is good idea to fill a bug report at http://bugs.winehq.org . > > For example, you cannot record CD or DVD > > using Windows software under WINE. > > You can. Last time I tried was about a year ago and it doesn't worked with few different programs for CD/DVD recording. Unfortunately I'm not aware of any improvements in this area so I didn't try since. Can you give an example of Windows program which can burn CD/DVD on WINE? Thanks. _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
