Title: Unicomp Classic Trackball keyboard for Linux
Post by: ds26gte on Mon, 09 June 2014, 18:31:27

Is there any experience here with the USB version of the Unicomp Classic Trackball keyboard(s)? Is it plug-n-play with an Ubuntu Linux system, or does it take some doing to get the trackball working? Do the keyboard and trackball use up just one USB port?

The pictures  (http://pckeyboard.com/page/ClassicTrackball/UNI047A)at vendor's site show only one cable and one connector. I suggest you to ask them directly.

There must be an usb hub inside it. Thats why it only has one usb connector. As said I suggest you contact them directly.

If it's the same as Endura Pro, you shouldn't run into any trouble.
