does it work with linux

Yes. I use it daily with Ubuntu 14.04LTS and Ubuntu 14.10. I'm a software developer, so I cannot afford for the equipment to stand in the way of getting work done. This unit just works.. In fact, the battery level of the keyboard and mouse are even reported in the battery control panel applet. It is fully plug-and-play; I plugged in the dongle, and immediately everything just worked.

Salik, this combo will work with Linux. I have used it on Ubuntu fine. I am not sure if there is compatible software for programming the keys though, as I have not looked. It will work though, it uses the standard USB HID Keyboard and Mouse Drivers which work on almost all operating systems. The software (Logitech SetPoint) is the only thing that is not portable to all OS's but you may be able to find it for Linux. Try looking at this, it should work, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HIDPoint.

I've tried this set on Windows 7, Linux Ubuntu 14.04, and Linux Mint 17.1. It definitely works great on windows. It seemed to work okay on Ubuntu Unity, but I was only using Ubuntu Unity for about a week before I switched to Linux Mint. In Linux mint I started noticing some keyboard lag. It could lag as much as 5 or 6 seconds at times which makes it impossible to use effectively. I ended up switching to a different keyboard.

Work with most linux kernel, the only problem I had before is CentOS 7 kernel 3.10, but you can worked around with install kernel plus

It works great with Suse and Open Suse Linux with no problems using standard drivers installed with linux -- I don't use the Setpoint, so I can't speak to that issue

It works with Ubuntu, Fedora, Slackware, Gentoo, Slitaz, Puppy, and Lunar Linux on both 32 and 64 bit versions, but I have no idea if it will work on Windows 8 as I do not use it ... odds are good though.

Linux is an OS right? This is strictly hardware, should work with anything.

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

It works perfectly on the latest Ubuntu. I have not tested on other distros.

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.

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

I can't confirm for Linux, I use mine on an older Mac Pro running MacOS-X 10.7.5. Works well for me.

Have had no driver issues in any version of linux I've used on this. That includes Ubuntu, Mint and Centos 7 so far. I suspect it will work with any recent version of linux.

It depends which features you need. It does not have a Linux driver, and does not support all the same features in Mac OS and 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.

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

What operating system are you using? I use Linux and everything works out of the box.

I used it on Mint, and got it working, but it didn't perform as well as it did on windows. It broke and they wouldn't honor the warranty so I can't test on my current distro. I would say go with something else for Linux.

Works for Win8 & 8.1, Win7, and it works in Linux. All plug and play, so you shouldn't have to mess with the drivers.

Hi, I have tried with Win XP, WIn 7, and Linux. IT should pretty much work with any OS except maybe the very old which do not support or have trouble detecting USB connections.Regards.

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