I've tried it on both Linux and Mac. On both, I had to turn the mic volume down to the absolute minimum to get an audible recording, and even then it sounded like the mic was about to explode. I researched for a few days before I just gave up and bought a new USB device (from Creative). It works fantastic. So don't buy these.
