Can this be set up and used on Linux? Or does it have to be set up on Windows? Once set up, is operation fine on Linux?

I believe you can manage everything about this device from its browser-based administration page. There is windows software that comes with it called NasNavigator, which seems to be mostly aimed at mapping network drives. I've connected a linux machine and a few android devices. You'll need to enable SMB in the admin screen.

Hi, I used it with Micorosft and Linux operating system without any problem, the only things that does not function is Internet Explorer scrolling, but with the lastes SP of windows 7 it function. Hope it helps.

It should work just fine, just about everything I have that works with Windows works with Linux. Shutdown the machine, install the hardware and it should just pick it automatically. At the top on the taskbar, click on your wireless icon, to see if it is there and whether it has found your wireless network.

I also can't answer at this moment. It doesn't work yet because I'm fighting against Win8 and it's hardware to install Linux.

Works fine on 64-bit Linux. I have no idea about Windows, but my guess is that since it looks like a serial porton USB, it will work fine with a 64-bit Windows OS.

I've used it with windows 7, 8 and a few flavors of Linux. It's a standard controller device. Probably works on OSX also.

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.

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'm sure you could find some more information on the forums. I personally have not tried running it on Linux. I would imagine you just need to find the correct drivers to run it properly. Good luck.

No you have to install its software and the software can be installed in linux, I have installed in Ubuntu, it works very well.

Sorry, sir. I can't help you with that question since I don't have an answer for you. My primary machine (laptop) runs Linux and I decided to use mix it up by switching to windows for my desktop (the one containing the pny). Google is your best friend though.

I've only used it once or twice on two different laptops running Linux (besides the Android device I bought it for) and it's worked as a mouse/keyboard without having to configure anything, just by plugging the receiver. Hope it helps.

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

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...

I'm running windows 7, but I've run it with Linux systems with no problems. As the previous user commented, it sometimes loses the keyboard connection on startup (at least on windows 7; I'm using a PS/2 keyboard with an adpater), but a restart of your machine or rescan of the hardware usually fixes this.

I'm running Linux Fedora, and it works like a charm with no setup at all. just plug it in and go. I've never tried Ubuntu, but I assume it would be pretty much the same.
