Linux? Has anyone tried if this works with Ubuntu?Thanks

I assume Ubuntu autodetected it? I am running Fedora, and no luck yet. I may have to dig deeper to find anything, but I'm sure it can be done.

I use Ubuntu 10.10 with Gnome, it works nicely. Kindle OS is made with the Linux kernel, just in case you want to know.

I'm using it with Ubuntu 10.04 beta and it works perfectly--including the media and volume buttons. If you press both left and right mouse buttons simultaneously, it's the equivalent (to Gnome, anyway) of a middle click.

I think it does, worst case scenario it doesn't work and you send it back to the seller. I wouldn't though as it worked on 3 different hard drives I used it on and I was able to get all my data. None were Linux but they were all different and it worked on all of them.

I use mine on a Linux machine, no problem so far; though I have not thoroughly put it through the paces.

It should work fine with Linux. The keyboard has it's own light source and uses a USB connection, which can be turned on or off at the users discretion.

It works with my Linux Mint OS. It was plug & play. That's about as good as it gets for the price.

Yes, it does. As far as I can tell it works as an additional "keyboard," so it works exactly as if you pressed corresponding keys on the main keyboard. It should work with no effort in all modern linux distros (I tried a couple). Denis.

No you have to install its software and the software can be installed in linux, I have installed in Ubuntu, it works very well.

Sorry, I know nothing about Linux ststems. Your best bet would be to contact either Linux or Creative.

I'm running Linux Fedora, and it works like a charm with no setup at all. just plug it in and go. I've never tried Ubuntu, but I assume it would be pretty much the same.

Dear John, I do not use Linux, but I am sure Roze from support will get back to you fast with the answer. support@plugable.zendesk.com

I haven't tried, but I mix PC and Linux with no problems, so I suspect PC and Apple would work too

If you really want it to work is meant to be, I would recommend to set it up with windows, so install the software and update, etc. But yes, it works with Ubuntu. I use it everyday on 14.04

I don't have Linux here. A Google (can I say that here?) search revealed that some geeks say it works out of the box. Others say it doesn't without modifying config files. It's two bucks, try it. You may like it. If not then wrap it up as a fun Christmas gift for your favorite Windows guru who has to have everything. cya...

It works on my Mint computer so I'm almost absolutely sure it'll be compatible with Ubuntu. It's a very simple input device, no drivers needed.

I plugged mine into a Linux Ubuntu Minimal install and it worked without issues. No software install required, no special drivers. It just works.

Installed and works well on the windows based platform. Never installed it on linux, however it was basically plug play , so it should.
