I use a couple laptops with Linux Mint 17 64 bit. I wonder if anyone uses this with Linux? Been to the Mint forums and so far, no joy with one user.

It didn't work when I tried it with Linux Mint 16. No assistance on Asus website. Didn't pursue the matter further.

I have used it with Windows 7, Windows 8, Linux Mint 16 and Linux Mint 17. It doesn't know the difference.

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

When I bought it, Mint 15 MATE was installed by default. Mint 16 is just out so they may want to give some time before going ahead with it.

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

Well, after you make it to work, it does! I had to put in a lot of effort to dig out the solution. When I contacted ASUS support for it, I was bluntly refused support for Linux OS.BTW I am on Ubuntu 12.04, not sure if that matters though.

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

The stripped down Linux it ships with will let it boot but is not otherwise useful. I installed Fedora 20 desktop with the help of a USB connected DVD drive. I use it daily and am very pleased with it. I think that it is an outstanding value. I do use a wireless trackball to make up for the integrated mousepad which is not outstanding.

I'm sure you could find some more information on the forums. I personally have not tried running it on Linux. I would imagine you just need to find the correct drivers to run it properly. Good luck.

I'm running both Win7-64 and Ubuntu 10.04LTS-64 (dual boot). No problems at all. Great little laptop.

Hello realmrealm, We do not recommend to use it with Linux. As the listing description shows, it supports Windows XP / Vista / 7 / 8 and only for stable performance. Anker Team 1-800-988-7973 support@ianker.com Mon-Fri 9am to 5pm(pst)

I'm typing this on an NX that is running Linux Mint 17.1 (Rebecca) Xfce with no proprietary drivers. Everything works "out of the box".

Yup. Used it with Ubuntu and Kubuntu. Linux has low-latency drivers built-in, so you're good to go.

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.
