I just feel it would be nice to hear a success story from someone, so I know I don't try in vain. Sadly, I haven't found any. Yes, I realize it will probably involve at least loading some modules, and maybe some changes in modules.conf. I've got some experiences on that. The keyboard works without problems (I haven't tried to assign all "multimedia buttons" yet, but some of them were already configured for me by Gnome), it's the phone part that is tricky. I don't have any experiences on setting up usb audio, so it will be a learning process for me. :) I'll come back to you and report my progress after the weekend!

MJJ (the guy who won the IP Talky) isn't much of a gadget freak, i guess, but he told me that it worked fine enough using the USB Gadgets-driver, but i don't even know if he's tried the "phone" part, but i would expect it to work just like a regular sound card, so enabling the USB Gadgets driver, and finding out what kind of sound card "chipset" the IP Talky uses, and then enabling that one, might help. Now, i don't know how "experienced" you are with Linux, and i guess that my reply is useful only if you know how to configure your kernel. Please post your experiences here, and feel free to ask for further assistance - i will try my best, but there's no guarrantee that i know how to solve you problem. Kind Regards Bjerrk Actually, i don’t know.

I've been searching the web for a guide on how to use IP-talky in linux, but to no good. Now I believe that you wouldn't use it as a price in the quiz game if it doesn't work, so I'd better ask you - where would I go for guides or any other help on setting the keyboard up in linux? Thanks in advance! Hi! I’ve been searching the web for a guide on how to use IP-talky in linux, but to no good.
