    I tried to use our existing Product Key of SMART Notebook 16 (Windows) and it really worked for SMART Notebook 11.1 SP3 (Linux).

    I totally agree with you. As a first step it should be easy for SMART Tech to publish a product key that activates the basic version of SMART Notebook for Linux or release a new version respectively a service pack with an unlimited trial period.

    Luckily I got SMART Notebook 11.1 SP3 working on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS by installing it on Ubuntu 20.04 and after that upgrading the distro to 22.04 . Apt-key is deprecated in 22.04 and I did not get the keyring management working with trusted.gpg.d in this case. There should be a proper documentation for modern linux distributions. The published documentation is still for version 11.1 SP2, not SP3.

    The driver package as well as SMART Notebook itself seem to be outdated but usable in most cases.

    A SMART support employee wrote me that Lumio may be a web based alternative, but it seems to be necessary to have a Google or Microsoft account for that. IMHO a absolute no-go.
