Is this card compatible with Linux? More specifically, is it compatible with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS? Thanks.

I copied this from the internet search. Linux has most drivers for usb already installed. This review is from: GMYLE (TM) 2-Port USB 2.0 PCMCIA Cardbus PC Card (fully inside for Notebook) (Personal Computers)I tested this card with linux (ubuntu 9.10) and it works well so far. No need to do anything just put it into the PCMCIA slot and it works immediatly.

I would be very certain that it can. I had it in a laptop running Ubuntu Server (12.04 LTS, I believe) and it recognized it the moment I booted up the laptop. I shared a hard drive with the network, and I could acheive nearly 100Mbp/s (the max of the network, of course).

It worked on Damn Small Linux with driver installs, but I don't know if it would work with any other distro. The laptop I used it in is quite old, so DSL and Puppy were essentially the only distros I could install.

Apparently Greg does. "Suitable for HostAP use on Linux By Greg on July 11, 2011 Style Name: PCISize Name: N300 3T3R Amazon Verified Purchase I know it is difficult to find cards that work well with linux. This card is inexpensive and worked without a hitch on my Ubuntu installation. (Including 802.11n) It uses the Atheros9k driver and worked with HostAP. Great cheap option for building an access point"

YES! this card works great with Ubuntu 12.04. It has onboard hardware RAID that I haven't tested but mdadm gets the job done.

I first put Ubuntu 9.10 on mine (I know, a little outdated haha), and had lots of problems in terms of drivers. However, it's running Linux Mint like a champ!

Did you ever find out if this was compatible with Linux? I see the v1 is listed, but can't find anything on the v2.

Ubuntu has a lot of broadcom drivers blacklisted, so in order to use most of them you need to first un-blacklist them first. However, to answer your question, Yes. Ubuntu 10.04 and up will support this card. Just plug and play. Linux Mint 13 and up will support this card fine as well. Anything older than that I cannot say. But I have used this card with distributions as old as Ubuntu 10.04 and Mint 13. I hope this helps.

Hi paven4u,If your motherboard is with available PCI-E X1/X16 slots and only these two slots, this Anker express card will be compatible. Another thing is the card needs OS Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 (32/64-bit) only. It will not work with Linux or Server system, please kindly double check with your computer. Hope it makes sense.Anker Team1-800-988-7973 support@ianker.com Mon-Fri 9am to 5pm(pst)

It has run flawlessly for the past year. I run Linux on a Raid 0 array. I have 2 gig of ram. Netflix, and videos are great even with standard video. Four gig, and a souped up video card would be marvelous. Master Rod

I currently use this board with PClinuxOS (my main, and preferred OS) and have had no problems with it. I have not used the wireless because I am close enough to my router to use a cable, but it does detect my network so I assume it should work fine. I can't speak to the performance of the onboard video because I use an nvidia card, but it is supported as far as I know.

I have this board and this card. It works great, just make sure you have the 4 pin molex pcie connected and 2 separate 6+2 pin connectors. I'm currently using a rosewill lightning 1300 watt to support this card since the rosewill lightning 800 watt wasn't enough

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)

From the quick search of your motherboard:Your board supports PCI-eThe card is PCI-e 3.0Generally devices are backwards comparable but you will experience slower bus speeds.I am not sure if you have 3.0 or not, but the card should work regardless.The only downfall I dislike about this specific card is it says it supports SLI, but does NOT actually have the ports.So it supports it, just cant use it? Thats silly to me.

Hi! We don't have a driver/software for Linux that will work with this adapter.

-I ordered this card for my windows pc running windows 8, it works great, fit my smf case very well, the box and booklet all show windows only, they do not show any other OS , I did not check to see if there is a Mac version or nor, if you are running Linux on an x86 machine with an pce slot (my card is an pce), it should work (I suspect) but try the ASUS web site. You will need special bracket for a full size case, they are on Amazon website. Hope this helps, Linux on a windows machine seems to work great ( I have one) so it just might work. Sorry I could not provide a for certain answer.

I have no idea if it will work with Linux. I did install it with a fresh load of windows XP with a minimal amount of grief from the OS. However, Linux is pretty good at discovering new hardware. Maybe contact the manufacturer for more details.

This card works just fine with Ubuntu 14.04. You will need to compile the kernel driver yourself, but you can do it. If you have any problems, there is a great page that has all the information you will need for setup and all that. It was written for the Infinitv 4 PCIe, but all the steps will work with this model as well. If you want to use it for a totally HTPC build, however, Mythbuntu is a great option (many prefer to use Kodi (formerly XBMC) for the majority of their media and use Myth TV for the TV part. http://www.bsmdevelopment.com/Reference/Sections/InstallNotes-MythTV_section-1.15.html

The card certainly supports it. I've purchased several of them but use them in VMware servers, not desktops. It's HP, so there's a good chance that it will work fine; their products are usually compatible with mainstream devices and OSs.
