Support for Loupedeck devices

[CDR0224]

Hi!
Has anyone tried, or better succeeded in configuring and using a Loupedeck device in Kubuntu (24.4)?
I have a Loupedeck Live which I used under Windows with various applications and I'd love to be able to use it in Kubuntu too.

My guess is 'No.'

• Compatible with macOS 10.15(or later) and Windows 10 (or later)

AI Overview

The Loupedeck Live does not natively support Linux, and it generally
does not run reliably under Wine.

The official Loupedeck software is designed specifically for Windows 10/11 and macOS. Because the software requires direct, low-level USB access to the device for haptic feedback, screen updates, and dials, it rarely functions correctly through the Wine compatibility layer.
Better Options for Linux Users:

• Open Source Alternatives: Developers have created open-source software to support Loupedeck devices on Linux. A notable project is loupedeck-linux (often found on GitHub/Reddit), which provides a native interface for configuration and functionality without plugins.
• Virtual Machine (VM): Some users have reported success passing the USB device through to a Windows Virtual Machine running on Linux, though this is less efficient than native support.

For the best experience, using the open-source Linux-supported community software is recommended over attempting to run the Windows application via Wine.
