Hi Jonathan,

I've got one of these and it works perfectly under linux.

When you plug the USB dongle in, it actually appears to the PC as a 
standard USB HID device, so you dont need to worry about compiling the 
bluetooth bits.

The only caveat is that you'll need a recent (2.6.20.something+) kernel, 
otherwise the touchpad doesn't work.

HTH
