Unfortunately the company does not provide its software for Linux, only Windows and Mac.
After installing the most common windows fonts with winetricks I had no trouble installing and running Sigma Data Center v 5.6.30 (or 4.0.11 for all that matters).
Everything appears to work quite well wit my Wine (4.12.1).
But whatever I do I can not connect the ROX to the data center. The latter is supposed to autodetect the device - to no avail.
The first problem is that Linux itself does not recognize the ROX as anything, i.e.
Code: Select all
lsusb
The kernel itself loads the
Code: Select all
cdc_acm
Removing cdc_acm module and loading
Code: Select all
modprobe usbserial vendor=0x1d9d product=0x1051
Code: Select all
/dev/ttyUSB0
Wine will then automatically add it to the 'dosdevices' directory as 'com33'. In accordane with the Wiki I've set the registry keys to make it 'com1' (I've tried simply linking com1 to /dev/ttyUSB0, too).
With this I hoped that the SIgma Data Center could recognize the ROX. Alas, no!
Adding /dev/ttyUSB0 as a separate drive (e.g. S:) also did not help.
Hence my question:
Has anybody been able to get Sigma Data Center and a Sigma sports device to work with Wine?
Alternatively: how could I check whether the serial device is actually being seen from Wine? On linux I appear to, at least, be able to connect to the device using picocom.
