Has anyone got any idea whether this unit will run Kali Linux with a full feature set? I know that the Utilite Pro model will...

Utilite standard and Pro are code compatible. Difference is in the number of cores and mSATA presence in Pro. If Kali boots and runs from SD it should work just as well on Utilite Standard.

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

O just saw the first post not all there. Heres the rest.. I am also looking forward to "PicUntu" which will allow a linux android dual boot. With "linux PicUntu" the issues with flash support and the websites like cbs,hulu recognizing the pc as android, and thereby blocking the device, should no longer be an issue simce i would see picuntu, a version of Ubuntu, instead. But there is no timetable as to when it will be ready for the average customer. Another poster mentioned slatedroid for articles referring to picuntu. So i continue to wait.

My last update, but I figured anyone interested in Ubuntu on this would be excited with this news:I am currently booted up on the LIVE CD (well image) of 9.10 beta (releases tomorrow) and it appears that everything is supported natively. The wireless drivers (that were a pain) are good, card reader, wired, better battery (by a slight amount). Also - the hotkeys all work (FN + (key)).Other distros I am not sure what their newest native driver support is like, but it is clearly do-able and if you want it you can get it on here. I hope the release doesn't lose any of this stuff!

Running CentOs and Ubuntu without issue. Only hardware feature I have not tested is the bluetooth.

YES! You have to find the Digimend kernel drivers on Github. I have it running right now with LXLE OS.

I dont think thats a good idea. Processor isnt that much. But i read some forums that they got it working with esxi. Running 2 instances of linux.

Unfortunately this does not appear to be compatible with my Mac version, 10.9.5 Mavericks. If it doesn't work in the host I've found it simple can't run on the VMs either. Under Bootcamp however, I've found it runs fine. If you have windows installed on your mac and then install VMWare you have to do a small trick with Workstation 9 to get USB 3.0 support as the Mac Pro literally has no USB 2.0 ports. Once you do that the Alfa works like a dream. I use Kali pretty regularly in VM and have never once used it native. It'll also happily run on something like Elementary OS as well. If your Mac has USB 2.0 then I imagine it's even easier so long as your running Windows.

I am wondering the same thing. I will be using the most recent release of either CentOS or Ubuntu and I would hate to find out it doesn't work on Linux.

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 is off the shelf hardware. It should work with Linux distributions AFAIK. You can build your own for slightly cheaper, but not too much cheaper. For the extra money, you do get warranty support on the hardware as well as having it tested and burnt in. That was worth my mine for having the piece of mind. Search for the free as mini reviews and you can get a breakdown of the hardware to check compatibility.

The answer to your first question is yes, it is MIDI USB so it should run in Linux just fine. The answer to your second question is it is USB powered, but it can also be powered through a brick. The brick is seperate from the LaunchKey, though.

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...

I first put Ubuntu 9.10 on mine (I know, a little outdated haha), and had lots of problems in terms of drivers. However, it's running Linux Mint like a champ!

This system is very generic hardware - I can't speak to all Linux systems, but Debian/Ubuntu installs just fine. You need to know what you're doing as some installers are looking specifically for a CD device during install. If you want to get around that issue, get yourself a USB CD or DVD drive.Once you get past any issue with the installer (and that's not a hardware issue - it's an issue with the installation code) it will run Linux just fine. This unit will run better with the command line, but it runs lightweight GUIs perfectly well.
