[Bug 8783] USB serial ports do not work

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8783

Hi,

Thanks for your response. I checked the 4DGL.ini file and it already contains
COM1 as the port.

Also yes, I have confirmed that /dev/ttyUSB0 is the correct name for the
device. I have tested it using minicom and I can see messages being received
from the device.

Regards,
Anna.
