Linux compatible? If so, the description should say so (I know enough to know that it is). There's more than two OS producers!

It is a USB device. It doesn't care what OS you using as long as the OS has a USB driver!

I don't use Linux, but it is listed as being workable for Windows, Mac, or Linux.

No OS on this one. I used Ubuntu Linux, which took soem tweaking to run well. You can use any OS you would like.

Officially only Win/Mac OSs are supported. It doesn't come with a Linux driver and Genius website doesn't provide one. However, http:// goo.gl/7FK

Installed and works well on the windows based platform. Never installed it on linux, however it was basically plug play , so it should.

I was wondering the same thing. It just because Ubuntu is open source, and everything that works with Windows doesn't necessarily work with Ubuntu. Proprietary patents, profit motives and such.. Its good to check before buying. Might as well buy something that is reported as having no issues.

9 times out of 10 most anything from hp will work with linux(linpus) because the driver support for hp is very good under linux

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.

I haven't tried it with Linux...yet. Haha. I'm guessing you wont have many problems.

As i recall, it didn't actually ship with a version of Linux installed. The first thing I did was install Ubuntu and its been working fine. I bought this laptop a few months ago, though, so I may have forgotten...

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?

It does not work with Linux at this time. Logitech has *never* been open-source friendly, and likely never will, due to managerial bullsh** as usual.

Yes to Win and Mac. Haven't tried Linux, though I'd assume yes, as I don't see any reason for it not to.

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.

Yes, if you go to the product page from SuperMicro, they list several linux OS. Quote "supported operating systems: RedHat Enterprise, Fedora 9, SuSE and CentOS"

Yes - right out of the box for windows. With Linux you'll need to re-partition the drive. The process in detailed in my review. Hope this is helpful.

Yeah it is. It works out of the box and you don't really need to look very hard for drivers. Both for windows and linux
