Hi.

Some misunderstanding. Situation is Windows applications use this key(for 
example ImgBurn app http://imgburn.com/) and because of this wine must create 
this key. On Ubuntu 14.10 (wine 1.6.2) this key is created and populated on 
every wine start. Also Windows 8.1 has this key. Key is not created on Debian 
because there is no /proc/scsi directory (ubuntu have this directory). 
Something is disabled in debian kernel configuration and wine cannot populate 
this key as I wrote in bug report. Maybe bug should be reassigned to kernel to 
reenable /proc/scsi interface.


Mentioned app works perfectly well on Ubuntu wine and does not work (cannot 
find cd/dvd drives) on Debian's wine because key absence. Anyway thanks.

Newer wine versions no longer have HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\Scsi.
