Works fine under linux with, as the other reviewer said, adding a kernel module to overcome it reporting itself as a 1 key keyboard (now thats a truly useful device!). Search for hid-aureal http://gitorious.org/~fcatrin/hid-aureal-kernel-module/fcatrins-hid-aureal-kernel-module and make that kernel module. There is a patch here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=112796 for the 2.6.37 kernel. I had to rmmod usbhid first then modrobe hd-aureal anf usbhid as I dindt patch otehr parts of the hid system. I used inputlircd and irw to check it was working and downloaded the lircd.conf file for the devinput driver. I could not get it to work with lircd and devinput but didn't work too hard at it. I am planning to integrate it with mythtv

Works just fine for use on a bedroom HTPC with Win XP. Easy install and adequate range.

Works flawless with WMC XP and Windows 7. On note, the remote seem a little cheap in quality, but has been working for the past month without fault. Will be purchasing again the next time it goes on sale.

Product works as advertised. I'm tying to implement on Ubuntu 10.04, and the remote isn't yet fully functional on my system. It isn't advertised as Linux compatible, so I don't blame it too much. I'm sure I just need to configure my system more fully.

I've purchased 5 of these remotes. The first one I purchased had a problem when the wife's vacuum cleaner snapped the USB IR receiver in half. Not the fault of the device but for the price, I could afford to keep some spares at the house. This works great with Boxee running on Win XP. You have no idea how happy my kids are now that they don't have to come into the family room to use the Boxee's keyboard to change shows and music! The only problem I've had is that when the remote isn't used for a few hours, I have to press some keys on the remote (any seem to work) then wait for a minute or two then the remote works fine again. I don't know if that's Boxee thing or what but I've used 2 of these remotes on the same Boxee computer and they both act this way. It's still an excellent product for the price.

Was skeptical about this due to price. But figured for 9.99 I should give it a shot. This works better then expected with XBMC or WMC. To get 100% functionality with XBMC I used Event Ghost to change the keystrokes of the remote. Setup was a simple as plugging in a USB thumb drive. I will be getting another one of these soon. I highly recommend this and you cannot beat the price.

This remote works with WMC 7. For $10 it is a good buy. It does not have a "live TV" button. I was hoping to use this with my WIN7 PVR, but without a live TV button it is more of a recorded media controller. Also the arrows control the menu options 90% of the time, but occasionally the mouse appears and they control that. I don't know if this is an intentional feature or a bug, but I find it annoying.
