Re: [Directxwine-users] Directsound - usb

[Shane V. <sha...@ya...>]

Jean,
I believe wine only supports USB drivers that are
supported by the Linux kernel.  If there is no kernel
module for your joystick then it will not be
supported,  unless it uses the standard USB HID driver
which does have support for many different kinds of
buttons and joystick/flight-stick features.  Wine will
not allow you to run a windows driver.  

This point has been discussed in several treads and I
think most have concluded that the best approach would
be to create a project to develop a USB wrapper
(similar to nswrapper for wireless network cards) in
Linux for the windows drivers, this would allow both
native Linux programs and Wine programs to use the
driver were as just having wine load the win driver
would only allow Wine programs to access it.
Unfortunately I don't believe the USB wrapper project
has even been started yet.
What RC sim is it that you are running, I have tried,
unsuccessfully to get RealFlight working with wine and
would love to know of one that does work.

I do not know anything about the state of sound for
Directx.

Regards,
Shane
