Bug ID: 45735 Summary: Neo Manager (formerly known as Alphasmart Manager) not installed, cannot read out via USB Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: Stefaniee@gmx.de Distribution: ---
Created attachment 62176 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=62176 backtrace of crashed installation
The Neo Manager (or: Alphasmart Manager) is a software to read out/send to/manage files, which are written on the NEO device (a keyboard-like writing device). It is originally a software for windows (hence: wine used), the device is attached via usb. The installation using wine runs through until the last thing is "registering product" and then wine stops the installation giving me the back trace below. I tried it several times, no change. However, the program seems to be installed nevertheless and opens as it should. The problem: Although my device senses beeing attached to my laptop (it can be used as keyboard in any program as well, when not opened in the neo manager), the neo manager does not find any neo device. Vagely similar bugs are reported for windows users, if the used usb port is a usb hub. I tried on every usb port my laptop has, it doesn't recognize the device on either one. (I admit, I don't understand the usb port/usb hub difference... sorry.)
