An alternative is to modify your application for use with Wine. What others
have suggested in similar situations is to build a Linux application that
speaks to the device driver directly, and provides a socket interface, then
use sockets from the Windows program to talk to the device. This is usually
straightforward enough, and doesn't require learning lots of Wine internals
to get working.
