Linux setup of Logitech universal TV Remote 350

I've just purchased a Logitech 350 universal Remote control. As anticipated, it requires connecting to the Inet, downloading an executable, and using it to configure the Remote for my devices: just a ten-year-old-Voxson TV, which is why I chose a bottom-of-the-range model rather than those able to control the entire house, garden, children, neighbours and pets (and, of course, the lovely lady of the domicile). As also anticipated, it's advertised as working on M$, but also on Apple-Intel boxes, so there's some hope for Lx, of which there's no mention (as always with consumer goods).

I've not yet tried this, but thought to post this thread both for general interest and perhaps for solving any problems ahead of time.

My intention is to install WINE (Lx Windoze emulator) on my laptop and do the dirty from there. Having never before used WINE I'm doubly in the dark, so advice from anyone with experience in any of these issues would be most welcome.
