Yes, please send me the demo or a link to download the demo and a short
description how to reproduce the bug.

Actually, if the device interface is known, you can write VXD/Sys
Replacements for Windows drivers when a Linux device is
available. Parallel/Serial Port devices may access the ports directly too.

Then only a device driver/interface is needed, but the GUI can be the same
for Win/<Platform where Wine runs>.
