I use the Hitec Aurora 9 (A9) transmitter for my remote control

This transmitter is part of a system of devices. One of the devices in
this system is the HPP-22, which is a USB device that allows a computer
to communicate with the A9 in order to load and save model information
as well as update the firmware in the transmitter and receivers.

Hitec publishes closed source Windows based software to enable a Windows
computer to communicate with the HPP-22.

After renaming the install file from "Install_hpp_22_V1.04(1).exe" to
"Install_hpp_22_V1.04.exe" in Dolphin, wine runs the installer just
fine, albeit with a few warning messages.
Note: Bash doesn't allow () characters. Doing a right click on the file
name in Dolphin allowed me to change it. In hindsight this could have
been corrected when downloading the install fall.
When I run the resulting HPP-22 program, it displays "HPP-22 is
disconnected." Ie its not finding the HPP-22 hardware connected to the
PC via a USB cable.

At this point I have been advised that the proper USB driver has not
been installed for the HPP-22 device. Who should I talk to to get this
done or get help to do it myself ?
Wine does not support any USB devices, out of
the box, other than
storage devices. There is an effort to add USB support for 'other
devices' but this requires downloading, patching and compiling Wine
sources with a third party patch set. See
http://wiki.winehq.org/USB
for more information and where to find the patches (I just downloaded
them today and will apply them for a sanity check against the latest
Wine development code (git as of Friday.))
