Has anyone had issues using this in a Linux environment? I have a Red Hat Enterprise workstation that I'd like to use this one. Driver OK?

Have not had any experience with this mouse and a Linux platform although I think your driver would probable work with this unit.

I used it in Linux Mint 15 and could not set the controls properly in one of the cadd programs. I think it was FreeCadd. All the functions worked, but were reversed from what they should be.

I am running debian on mine. The only issue I encountered is that installing the wireless driver was annoying.

I have not personally tested it ... but I have run Arch Linux and it does have NetworkManager support and good community support -- so it should work -- likey with little issues.

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.

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 Team1-800-988-7973 support@ianker.com Mon-Fri 9am to 5pm(pst)

I ran Ubuntu on the the board initially and everything appeared to run fine. I now run FreeBSD and use the board as a firewall. The only issue is that drivers don't exist for the second physical ethernet port (which - for some reason - uses a different chip than the first ethernet port).

Mine works fine. Using it on a Linux Mint 17 system with a 26 inch monitor.

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

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

Nor sure how drivers are for 8.1. I bought it for use with Linux and it works flawlessly right out of the box (no driver required). Funny thing is if it works at all, period. It should work on any os. Just needs to be told what to do and how to do it

A lot is going to depend on your kernel version (regardless of what distro you're running), and the actual hardware you're using (video card, monitor, etc). Having said that, I'm currently using this KVM to switch between a desktop running Fedora 18 and a laptop/docking station that's running Fedora 19 and haven't run into any showstoppers yet. Had some issues with screen resolution when I tried to replace the OOTB Nvidia video drivers with the proprietary versions, and there are some keyboard shortcuts in the documentation that I found to be glaringly absent (see my review of the product for details), but none of the issues were big enough that I couldn't use the product.

It works fine with Ubuntu and I see no reason why it wouldn't work OK with CentOS etc. Is there a particular flavour you want to run on it?

I'm sorry to ask a question on your question but did you every purchase the device and try it on Linux? I was also curious.

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

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.

I have run Ubuntu, Mint, and Debian on two of these laptops. Driver support is good. Depending on which manufacturer's NIC you have, you might have to install non-free drivers for wireless.
