True ... the Linux client has not been announced so there is nothing on the
official web site.  You will however need an evaluation copy of the Windows
software to backup Linux clients.  The Windows software is available from
the web site.

The current version (i.e. Version 5.5) does support the Linux client via a
plugin, but you'll not see this stated anywhere.

The necessary plugin is available with Linux Client.

Unfortunately they have chosen not to make the Linux client a public beta,
like they have for MacOS X even though the Linux Client existed before the
MacOS X client ... I guess supporting MacOS X has a higher priority.  :-(

If we can show them that there are significant sales in the Cobalt RaQ/Qube
market then they may throw additional resources at getting it out.

Now where did I put that non-disclosure agreement ...
