This release is in Beta. Beta software is not fully supported, and may be incomplete or unstable. It is not intended for use in production systems. We welcome your feedback on this release! Send feedback to anyware-beta-feedback@hp.com.

The Standard Agent for Linux provides support for USB devices and certain Wacom tablets attached to Anyware clients.

USB bridging must be explicitly installed

When installing the Standard Agent for Linux, you must explicitly enable support for USB bridging by installing the required USB dependencies yourself. Refer to the installation steps for Ubuntu and RHEL or Rocky Linux for the required commands. If the required USB dependencies are not installed, the Standard Agent for Linux will be incapable of bridging USB devices.

This requirement does not affect support for keyboards, and mice or other pointer devices. It does not affect Wacom tablet support.

If the required USB packages are installed, USB bridging support is enabled by default. Administrators can disable or configure USB behavior by changing configuration options.

Keyboards, mice, and other pointer devices are managed by Anyware clients, and are always allowed.

Important: PCoIP USB allowed and unallowed device rules

The number of PCoIP USB allowed and unallowed device rules in a PCoIP session is determined by the Anyware Client as well as the Anyware Agent. Sessions from Anyware Clients version 23.01 and earlier, as well as sessions from Zero Clients will only apply the first 10 rules.

Xbox One Controller Support

The Standard Agent for Linux supports Xbox One controllers when attached to Zero Clients only.

The following Xbox One controllers are supported:

  • Xbox One 2015
  • Xbox One
  • Xbox One S
  • Xbox One Bt
  • Xbox One Elite

Support for Xbox Controllers

Xbox Controllers are currently not supported by Anyware Software Clients and Trusted Zero Clients.
