Does TI offer support for the Linux OS?

Currently, TI does not support the Linux platform. Also, there are no announced plans to release software for this operating system. 106557


Im wondering...does the Windows version SEE it as just another drive/ram card/ or what... If so, I would think Just the USB driver would see it, as an extra RAM/HD...then it would only take drap and drop..

Good idea ECA, never thought about it. I'll try to just plug it on. It MAY or MAY NOT work but its worth a try. Thanks, don't think that Ti's got the time and money to spend on something like that, though it can open an other piece of the cake worldwide... New customers. One thing's sure : Micro$oft won't like it!

well, thats a trick with ALOT of the digital cams, on Windows...1 standard driver works almost all of them, as they see it as an extra drive. but most of these have the SD, MMF ram cards.. So all those machines must have a standardized interface..
rather look at the easy way first...
