Does it support any version of Linux?

I can't answer that with authority. The software is Java based and has 2 options can run off the meter or according to the manual load unto a Windows or Mac PC. My guess is the second option would require an emulator. Check the Bayer website www.bayercontour.com or their Customer Service 800-348-8100

Yes. You might have to format the drive though. It should be fast enough to run Linux without any issues.

Thanks, I went ahead and bought it... it works just fine with my Red Hat Linux box, but it does require reformatting... I'm sure it would work just fine with most other Linux distros too.

I wish I could answer that question but I don't have a Linux computer and I don't know anyone that does. But the installation booklet that came with it only had information for Windows and Mac.

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?

Absolutely. I bought this item because it works great with both Windows and Linux. Well worth it. I need to buy another one because I gave this one away to one of my students.

Not even Google knows. Perhaps a visit to a Linux forum will help?Other than that, I'd say it doesn't work with Linux, as don't most other PC apps.

Heavens yes. Also, go to Distrowatch and look at the all the Linux programs out there. It will run those too.Understand this: the people who make the boards, and Intel is excellent here, make them to run in a standard format so any operating system out there can handle them. Further, 10 something is out there and coming down the pike.. that board, and almost all the boards sold on Amazon will handle 10 when it gets here. SOME.. some of the boards are made for older input devices, and older operating systems. NOT the new ones which are universal. It is, by the way, and excellent, excellent board. Heavens yes.

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

I'm not sure if it supports Linux. You'll need to go to the website to look at the User Manual. Their manual specifically said that the port replicator did not support Windows 8. I worked with the HP SmartFriends technicians for over 16 hours to get the port replicator to work with my new laptop. I found out that it didn't support Windows 8 after I took the usual route where "IF ALL ELSE FAILS, READ THE DIRECTIONS"!! I could have saved myself a lot of time if I had skimmed through the User Manual!!! Good Luck!!!

It is supported by most linux distributions. I use it in unRaid, which is based on Slackware, and it worked straight out of the box...

Its extremely simplistic. It will work with any linux distro, but its really low quality. I recommend anything but this.

It works on Linux Mint 16 (thus Ubuntu), openSUSE, and Debian out of the box. I haven't tested others.

I have not used it with Linux. I have used it with Win7 and Win Server 2008. It uses "Realtek" technology, if that helps. It should work with Linux.
