Have you checked the winehq database for this application?<br>
<br>
Does the software do anything to acknowledge the device being
plugged in?<br>
<br>
You also might want to keep a Windows VM around which can save you
the trouble of rebooting.<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br>

<br>
This is probably a long shot, but my insurance company gives
me money for logging in steps off of my pedometer. I plug
it into the USB port on Windows which triggers a program
called gozone to record the miles, clear the pedometer, and
send them to Virgin HealthMiles. <a href="http://us.virginhealthmiles.com/pages/home.aspx" target="_blank">http://us.virginhealthmiles.com/pages/home.aspx</a><br>
<br>
In Linux, the program opens in wine and puts a little Virgin
icon in the taskbar, which when I right-click on, gives the
options to "Visit VirginHealthMiles.com" or exit. Clicking
on "visit" opens a Wine Internet Explorer and goes to the
page. So, there is life there.<br>
<br>
Plugging in the pedometer gets this at the tail of dmesg...<br>

I think that it does the deleting part as well. However, it
doesn't upload my steps, which means a daily trip to
Windows, which is obviously cumbersome. <br>
<br>
I am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.<br>
<br>
Is there any hope?<br>
