You can always give it a shot.

If it doesn't work, give Panny a call and ask them to mail you a disk.

Works fine.

Just go to: http://panasonic.jp/support/global/c...0/bd30_na.html

Download the update file (firmware version 2.2), use any Linux decompression program to extract the PANA_DVD.FRM file from within the .exe file you downloaded. It's a self-extracting archive, but of course, that part only works on Windows -- unless you've got Wine (or something similar) setup.

Use any DVD burning software for Linux to burn the PANA_DVD.FRM file to disc. For best results choose single session burning, and have the disc finalized when done.

Pop it into your player and you're good to go.
