Wine doesn't support any hardware drivers: http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-8021e00ae87d4fbfb607739af82bdb621b9d9366

The only chance you can get your GPS to work on Wine is if it's a standard serial device (or USB->serial). In that case you system should find and install driver automatically or you'll need to help it.

And AppDB seems to have someone running it: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=10016

So the only thing you'll need to do is to run this command:

Code:
ln -s /dev/ttyUSB0 ~/.wine/dosdevices/com3
