Does this work with linux? If so, does it require proprietary drivers?

I don't have Linux OS. I have Windows. I have not had any problems. I recommend contacting Brother and asking them.

It doesnot support linux. I have tried it on Ubuntu and Fedora. Use only for windows.

Yes, this device will work with any Linux system that has USB HID drivers installed. These drivers are normally installed by default. The device worked perfectly with my Arch Linux/KDE system.

Yes, but unfortunately not with Linux. If anyone has found the drivers and software that works under Linux, please post.

What is your OS? For Windows you have to install drivers, for Linux it should be automatically installed.

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".

i got it to work in linux mit 14, and if it works in linux it should work in win7 x64. you may need to DL the drivers with another NIC, or via USB from a different box that does have a working net connection. though.

I would be very surprised if it did not work with them, because its compatibility is entirely managed via the USB connection. Any OS that handles USB well should detect it just fine. It even works great with my Ubuntu Linux machines.

I've had it working on Windows xp/Vista/7/8/8.1 so far. Unsure about Linux at this point.

It should treat the box as an external sound card. In this case, it should work. Linux has OOB drivers, unlike Windows and the need to download and install drivers. This being said, it should work with Linux.

Yes. I'm using it on Arch Linux 64 bit and Windows 7 64 bit, and it works fine with both. It supports the latest Nvidia drivers still, which is nice.

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.

I believe it will work with Linux. I do have a fair return policy if it doesn't work.

If it has a USB 3.0 port, runs Windows or Mac OS X (not sure about Linux), then it should work just fine.

I am using it with Ubuntu. It works fine. Just remember that it is a TTL logic USB to serial converter. Check that is what you are looking for before buying this.

It works on my Debian jessie with kernel 3.16. I suspect Ubuntu has a very similar set up.
