Yeah, just make sure you have the kernel source, not sure if this is 
provided with unbuntustudio.

I think it should be included in the main linux kernel. Did anyone 
contact clemens at ladisch.de to ask for zoom r16/r24 to be added to 
quirks-table.h (just downloaded kernel 3.13.5 and AFAICT the zoom quirks 
are not in there)?

It's annoying, but I think it all boils down to the relatively small 
number of linux users...
