I have a USB device which doesn' t have a driver in linux, I wrote it as kernel module, but because I want to run windows software under wine which uses this device it seems that I will need to write something like proxy in wine (like audio and video drivers are written) to enable my software to use this device.
Forgive me my interest: what type of data does this USB exchande with a PC? What are real functions of this device?
Right now I am planning to rewite this driver using libusb and implement everything in wine's proxy.
I understand the proxy-part, but how using libusb would help you? Maybe you are afraid of your LKM will never getting into public kernel tree?
Maybe somebody have some dummy driver for purposes like this or I sould just take audio or some other driver and use it as starting point, maybe you have some useful suggestions to give me before I start?
Don't wanna be narcistic, but if you read "Interests about Wine" part on the Wiki page about me (sorry) [*], you may find some messages in the maillist archive from enthuasiasts, who probably already have started some work. :-P
