Using Port Replicators/Docking Stations with Linux

#1 Post by awannet » Wed Nov 07, 2007 5:28 am

Before I order a Port Replicator for my R and T series, will it work with linux, or what about the lenovo USB docking solution?

Linux works fine with a port replicator. I have never used the USB docking station so I can't comment on that. Currently I have (2) Thinkpads running linux, both on port replicaators and they run flawlessly.

The USB ports on the port replicators work fine on Linux. I use a T23 on port rep and have had no issues.

Rules of the road :thumbs-UP:
