Hm. On the product page, located at
http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Merchant_Id=&Section_Id=76&pcount=&Product_Id=21138
...it reads, in part:
"Software compatible with Window ?95, 98, 98SE, ME, NT, 2000 and XP,
Novell 4.1 and above, Linux, SCO, Solaris, FreeBSD, Mac os 9.0 and above. "
which led me to believe that the device would work with my Red Hat
computer. I wouldn 't have bought it if it weren 't.
