Is it possible to use RainbowLink 4 in GNU/Linux?

Hi. I would like to buy a RainbowLink 4 but before that I want to check if it works in GNU/Linux, since I see only drivers for Windows and MacOS.

Does anybody know if this will work in a relative modern popular GNU/Linux distribution?

 

 

Kind regards,

As long as you have the CH340 driver installed in your Linux, you can use the Rainbow link. 

And the CH340 driver is installed by default in most modern GUN/Linux.

 

If not you can download the Linux CH340 Driver (but I’d recommend just upgrading your Linux kernel so that you get the  “built in” one).
