Rowit under wine

Post by atheist » January 9th, 2007, 7:05 pm

hello,

has anyone had any luck getting Rowit to work under wine? I was able to install it, and launch, but no dice actually running it.

I have the same problem. Keep us posted if you have any luck. I haven't had much chance to tinker with this yet, but I will post if I have any success.

I have tried to install it but never managed to do so because it asks for dotnet. What do you do to install it? What versions?

I guess you also know that wine does not support usb? I have a pm2+ with a serial interface so I would really like to test it.
If rowpro is based on dotnet (since it asks for that library) maybe an option is to ask digitalrowing to make a version compiled with mono.

Are you sure? I read about someone using a usb gps with oziexplorer under wine. Check out the following link for details:
http://www.oziexplorer3.com/support/ozi ... linux.html

edit - Maybe not relevent since it is using what looks like a com port from the wine side, but still it is apparently a usb device and it is being accessed under wine.

Looks like my knowledge is a little outdated :oops: . I just tested to access my usb flash memory from a wine installed image editor. It works nicely. After some googling it looks like wine can use an usb device, if it is supported by the operating system.

Anyway, I’m still interested in knowing how Rowpro was installed.

rowpro doesn't work under wine; it won't install, and as of the most recent crash-b's, they have no plans for a linux version. the program i'm talking about in this thread is called "rowit," which is a free windows-pm3 program available from concept2. i can install it under wine, but it doesn't seem to recognize that the pm3 is connected.

sorry for any confusion,

Sorry I mixed that software.

I have tested the old e-row under linux and it works well, but I think its pm2+ only. I don’t use it either. If I use any software I use pm2dand gnuplot. Here is a sample output from gnuplot.
