We also sell the software independent of hardware. It should run on any AMD64 platform with enough CPU for 3G and an appropriate Ettus radio. If anyone with an existing platform is interested in just the bits, send a short note to sa...@ra....

Let me know if you get specifics. It should be ok for Kubuntu as well but we’re only supporting Ubuntu officially.
