Has anyone gotten the stamp editor to work using wine on linux? I got the
executable to run under linux, but the editor incorrectly identifies my
stamp as a Basic Stamp2 v0.0 and then refuses to program it.

Using Windows95 the stamp editor identifies my stamp as a Basic Stamp2 v1.0
and programs it just fine.

    I'm looking to do the same. Was it easy to set up wine? I haven't
    made it work yet. . .

    I used a RedHat source code package to install wine. A lot depends upon
    your version of Linux and the version of wine you are trying to install. I
    had a problem with the registry, but thought that I fixed it by accessing a
    Windows95 partition on the Linux system (dual boot system). I may still be
    having a problem with the registry and maybe that is why the Stamp Editor
    reports a v0.0 instead of v1.0.

    I would like to do the database side of this project on Linux, but I don't
    want to reboot every time I change the program on my robot.

    I like Linux, but it can take a LOT of time to get everything working right.

    FYI - I am using:
    RedHat 7.1 <- with all the updates from the RedHat website
    Wine - I don't have the version number with me, but whatever version comes
    on the 7.1 Power Tools cd.

    Hi,

    That seems to be better than what I have. The program is working, but tells
    me to check the serial cable or the power (just like the message you get on
    win).
    Is this maybe caused by the NextStep board I am using ? What carrier board
    are you using ?

    Kind regards
    Leo van Snippenburg

    If Linux is your only choice you could run windows on top of Linux using
    VMWare... that would probably get it working...

    Just a thought...
