I actually found a driver someone made for the toneportGX for linux that worked ... It was already 4-5 years old then, so about 6-7 now .... but that seems to be the future ... linux isnt that hard to make work .... i did a ton of searches and went through lots of developer forums before i found it. A other thing is, go buy a older computer, and run win 7 ... it´s still used and is the most stable windows to this day
