Connect LEGO WE DO with Linux?
The browser plugin for Scratch 2.0 Javascript extensions hasn't been made for Linux yet: it's Windows and Mac only.
It might be possible with Scratch 1.4, I don't know. Which one are you using, and which Linux version?

It works with Scratch 1.4 on Linux, but you probably have to add a file (because of root access for USB-devices).
Look here (in the comments) for the solutions which works for me (at least under Debian 6 and 7): http://mv.ezproxy.com.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/discussions/bugs-troubleshooting-suggestions/scratch-wedo-linux-distro-specific-issues

Hi Pere,
I just tested my WeDo construction hardware on 3 different PCs (desktop, laptop, netbook) using Scratch 1.4 for Linux. They are all running Ubuntu 12.04 (32-bit) and work perfectly. All I had to do was add the rules file that Sjoerd linked to further up in the posts or here. Let me know if you are having any trouble and I will do my best to help.
FYI, that netbook is my daughter's Dell Mini 9. They are cute, inexpensive AND indestructible!
