We do not have Linux drivers for the ANT USB stick available, although there are some efforts from the community to get the USB stick working on Linux.

Please note that the resources in our website are intended for developers working with ANT technology.

Please contact Garmin for information regarding software/drivers for use with a particular product.

Take a look at the open-source community project here: http://code.google.com/p/antpm/ it's exactly trying to communicate with the 310xt under linux.

See "Appendix 1" of this web page: http://opensource.quarq.us/headunit_test/

Both generations of ANT USB sticks work fine under Linux.

The ANT device shows up as a standard POSIX serial port. Just send and receive messages from it as per the "Message Protocol and Usage" document.
