I have read the instructions on the Wine website about configuring Wine to recognise USB connections in order to connect a smartphone to wine. I have established that connecting the smartphone creates /dev/sg2; so I have substituted that for /dev/ttyUSBn in the instructions. However, wine does not recognise the connected smartphone.
Any suggestions?

Hi
If it mounts under linux, then it wont work in wine… you need to
switch it off (usb_modeswitch) so wine has access to the usb port.
So under wine are you wanting to mount it as a device?

Same question. I have multiple apps running in wine, but no access to the usb. Rufus 3.5 in specific. How do I access the usb_modeswitch you are referring to?
thank you
Hi
AFAIK it’s only serial type devices, eg gps I’ve used it with wine (not recently) to connect to a radio scanner. I would have thought you can select storage via winecfg?
