	Hmmm .... I'm probably being very stupid about that tilde. Fwiw, 
I got wine by yum install, iirc. My .wine is in /home/btth ; I get :  

[root at localhost ~]# cd /home/btth
[root at localhost btth]#  ln -s /dev/ttyS0 com1
ln: creating symbolic link `com1': File exists
[root at localhost btth]# ls|grep .wine
[root at localhost btth]# cd .wine
[root at localhost .wine]# cd dosdevices
[root at localhost dosdevices]# ln -s /dev/ttyS0 com1
ln: creating symbolic link `com1': File exists

	I deleted it, and ran the command again.But even after closing 
and re-opening the map software, telling it to find a GPS still gets me a 
failure.
