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

I haven't tried it with linux, but the windows driver will not work, you have to find one for linux

I am using it on XP, but not sure about Linux. I should as it is a physical switch and not software driven.

The unit definitely works well with Linux. I'm running a Mint (Mate) 17- 32 bit OS installed on an old DELL laptop, and the unit worked right out of the box. Never used or needed the driver disc. It is driving a 5.1 speaker system from Logitech.

Some programs might treat it specially, but Windows handles it nicely as a pointer input device, so it should work okay with anything in Windows. Haven't tried on OSX/Linux.

I am wondering the same thing. I will be using the most recent release of either CentOS or Ubuntu and I would hate to find out it doesn't work on Linux.

I haven't tried it, but I can't imagine it not working with linux or any OS for that matter.

It works on Linux Mint 16 (thus Ubuntu), openSUSE, and Debian out of the box. I haven't tested others.

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

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.

Not even Google knows. Perhaps a visit to a Linux forum will help?Other than that, I'd say it doesn't work with Linux, as don't most other PC apps.

Unfortunately no. All of mine are in Ubuntu and RaspberryPi computers (Linux, drivers built in). Sorry.

I think that it should. I am using it with Ubuntu Linux and it works just fine.

I haven't tried Linux, but as you say, they're just USB speakers after all, so I'd expect they would. I didn't have to install any specific drivers to get them to work on my Windows 8 machine.

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

Its extremely simplistic. It will work with any linux distro, but its really low quality. I recommend anything but this.
