Version 1.1.50_1.2rc7-1.1-i586 of Wine broke my ability to use the USB port

PortableApps tools under Wine on Linux.  It also caused file corruption on
my Passport drive and required a significant amount of effort for me to
recover. So DO NOT use this version with USB disk drives!!

That's a completely different issue.... Everyone thougfht this is
about using USB drivers under Wine...

How is your Passport drive formatted - ext2/3 or vfat?

The default for USB drives is vfat, i.e. FAT-32.
