Hi,
I did some inspection how to get Agfa Photowise and my old CL50 to work under Wine.
By default Photowise runs perfectly, except that when you try to connect to the camera, serial connection will always fail. After some debugging there is a very simple reason why this happens:
Photowise tries to flush the file handle using FlushFileBuffers(). Under wine, doing this on /dev/ttyS0 will return error and FlushFileBuffers() returns FALSE. Photowise will detect this as error and refuses to continue.
By forcing FlushFileBuffers() to always return TRUE, Photowise starts to work perfectly and finally my Agfa CL50 works with full 115200 speed under linux :)
Perhaps somebody could figure out a clever fix for this in the future versions?
If you start a bug report in bugzilla explaining the problem and attach a diff -u or at least show of how you hacked wine, there is a good probability that someone could work up an adequate patch that could be applied to CVS. Heck you might be able to do it yourself, with a little help. http://bugs.winehq.org
