I installed XBMCBuntu (Ubuntu 12.10 running GNU/Linux 3.5.0-43-generic i686) on my GB-XM12-3227(rev. I also attached an original Microsoft RC-6 IR receiver to the USB3.0 port at the back. As you can see the RC-6 IR receiver is recognized by Ubuntu (Bus 003 Device 003).

The ONLY Linux distribution I could find that would work correctly on the new BRIX's is the new Linux Mint Cinnamon edition.

It was the only Linux distro that even allowed the AMD-Radeon graphics drivers to be installed and get actual hardware graphics acceleration. You may also need to add your LoginUser to a 'group' to allow linux to give you access to what you are trying to use. To use my geiger counter with a USB to Serial Adapter I had to add my Username to the 'dialout' group.and a few other things to allow Linux to use the USB port.

My application used 'Wine' as it was a windows software application so for Wine (you can add Wine from the respositories/Synaptic Package Manager- to run windows software inside linux)I also had to create a 'Com1' link to the USB port. There's a whole process of creating the symbolic link for Wine in it's DOS devices folder. I can get the linux code to type in to get it all set up if you are using Wine and a Windows software application to use that device. (setting up the correct ttyUSB0, or ttyUSB1.linux assigns 'ttyUSB (then a number) for each USB port.and you have to find out which one your device is using then set up the symbolic link for Linux to start using it. If you are still in need of help of getting this to work please reply and I'll get you all the linux commands to type in.
