+ I am pretty sure the Xilinx software installs a special VXD driver in Windows.
+ Wine can not use VXDs. Your best hope is that someone discovers how the VXD
+ works, then writes a clone of this VXD in Wine.
+ Possibly also the Linux kernel must be modified to work parallell port in ways
+ the JTAG debugger understands.
+ 
+ This is not likely to be fixed, but hey!
+ Ask Xilinx about linux support for their JTAG debugger, maybe that can bring
+ good things.
+ 
+ (Changed component to wine-ports.)
