Does this work with Ubuntu (linux)?

It mostly works out of the box in Ubuntu 14.04.2. The play/pause and volume keys work but the rest of the media keys seem to be a no-op, and only a few keys on the detached numpad work (calculator shortcut, clear, backspace, enter) and I can't figure out how to make the rest work (numlock, 0-9, ., and the operators)

Haven't a clue, it works with Mac and all the drivers are downloadable so I don't see why it wouldn't providing Ubuntu can run other windows based programs it should work.

I just plugged in the dongle into the back of my 14.04 box, and nothing functions at all. Im honestly super disappointed.

It works out of the box in Ubuntu 13.10. The media keys on the keyboard work too. Specifically, I was able to use the play/pause button to control the playback of my music player (pithos) even when it was running in background

Can't say for sure, but I would think so. It just comes across as a USB keyboard and mouse.

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

It should work fine with Linux. The keyboard has it's own light source and uses a USB connection, which can be turned on or off at the users discretion.

Tested and working under many flavors of Linux. It uses the very common rtl8187 driver, so it'll work under just about anything.

No, this docking station is not compatible with Linux. For further assistance, please email support@satechi.com. Thank you, Satechi Technical Support

Yes, it does support Ubuntu. Running 12.10 on this with no problems, graphics card recognized and all drivers installed properly.

Unfortunately no. All of mine are in Ubuntu and RaspberryPi computers (Linux, drivers built in). Sorry.

I am using it with Ubuntu. It works fine. Just remember that it is a TTL logic USB to serial converter. Check that is what you are looking for before buying this.

yes it does, I bought 2.... one for an xp machine and one for a windows 7 machine it works out of the box on both. Incidentally it even worked fine on my Linux machine.

It should work, I have installed many Linux distros on this as well as many flavors of windows.

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

It works with my Linux Mint OS. It was plug & play. That's about as good as it gets for the price.

I have no idea if it will work with Linux. I did install it with a fresh load of windows XP with a minimal amount of grief from the OS. However, Linux is pretty good at discovering new hardware. Maybe contact the manufacturer for more details.

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

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.

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.
