Lego Cybermaster

I have a Lego Cybermaster. It is not Lego Mindstorms. The software delivered for it does not work on wine.

Disclaimer

Here are my notes for writing an article on Lego Mindstorm, err, Cybermaster:

According to http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Lego/intro.html#AEN28 Lego asks for keeping some policies here but I cannot find any.
