I followed, unsuccessfully, the instructions for installing libhpcalcs.
With the installation of libhidapi-hidraw0 / libhidapi-libusb0 the HPPCK started to connect to my Prime.
As a reference I'm running:
Ubuntu! 8.04.4 LTS
wine-3.0 (Ubuntu 3.0-1ubuntu1); with the variable WINEARCH = win32 and set to "Windows 7"
dotnet40 (winetricks)
vcrun2015 (winetricks)
wine-mono-4.9.4
HP Connectivity Kit (2020 1 16)
Prime hardware version C / firmware 2020 01 16
/etc/udev/rules.d/82-hp-prime.rules file with:
# HP Prime Calculator
SUBSYSTEM == "usb", ATTRS {idVendor} == "03f0", ATTRS {idProduct} == "1541", MODE = "0664"
KERNEL == "hidraw *", ATTRS {idVendor} == "03f0", ATTRS {idProduct} == "1541", MODE = "0664"
according to the output (prime connected):
~ $ lsusb
...
Bus 002 Device 012: ID 03f0: 1541 Hewlett-Packard
...
It is important that the Linux and Wine environments share the same TEMP directory.
In my case I resolved with:
ln -s / tmp ~ / temp
I don't know if there is a smarter way to do this or if all these libraries are really needed.
Even with a lot of instabilities and without some features, I'm not having any problems transferring content.
The ~ $ dmesg output reports some I / 0 errors, so I don't exclude any danger of damage to the calculator in these operations!
There must be a possibility to make adjustments, but I believe they are beyond my abilities.

Hi, I'm very interested in your results!
I attempted to use in in wine (ARCH and Mint 19.3) and in VirtualBox with windows 7 sadly with no success.
No HP prime and no virtual caculator are seen.
Maybe the HP prime revisione
