| Apr 28, 2014 at 13:39 | comment | added | Keltari | @BonsiScott I stand corrected, there are Linux drivers. However, my other point about speed is still true. | |
| Apr 28, 2014 at 13:31 | comment | added | Jonny Henly | @Keltari these monitors can work in Linux, please look at the second part to question 2 in my answer, or follow this link. I agree with you that it will work fine for office apps and web browsing, but video and movement will be laggy and stuttery | |

| Apr 28, 2014 at 13:23 | comment | added | Keltari | @BonsiScott you are correct, but I want to clarify it a bit more. These monitors will not work in Linux. The are only drivers fro Windows and OSX. This also means Windows/OSX has to load before the monitor will work. On top of that USBv2 is not fast enough for video display. It will work fine for office apps and web browsing, but video and movement will be laggy and stuttery. | |

| Apr 28, 2014 at 3:45 | comment | added | Bonsi Scott | i don't think that this will work because you need special drivers (included) to work with on windows and/or mac. I don't think that any BIOS currently would detect such mnitor from system start. | |
