I am planning to purchase Picoscope 3204A and install it in Ubuntu 13.10 OS, so we want to the know the kernel of the Ubuntu 11.04 that support the driver for Picoscope 3200A devices to insure if it could work in our OS.
Besides that, as indicated in the driver installation website that the driver do not fully support every function in every product, so what is the list of the functions supported by the linux driver for Picoscope 3204A devices.
PS3204A is supported via libps3000a driver. This driver has all the features available via programmable API as the windows driver. It is the PicoScope 6 for Linux that misses features. We are working on getting the same level of functionality between those two versions. Although Ubuntu 11.04 is not within our test range (mainly we focus on Ubuntu 12.04 and above) I don't see any reason why the driver wouldn't work on older version.

The instruction on the website are sometimes displayed in a wrong way on certain browsers. A newline is injected after ">" in the first line. Make sure the following is just one line in you terminal:
I also downloaded the linux driver.
(with apt-get as [updater] for my XUBUNTU)
But the program said: no suitable device found.
I did plug the USB in, and the red led light is on.
