Apologies if this is not the right venue to ask, but it seemed this list would have people with the relevant expertise: does anyone have experience using the Vaunix Lab Brick variable attenuators with control software under Linux? (Ubuntu, with code preferably in Python or C) They claim this is possible, and there are hints around the web, but my Google-fu has not succeeded in finding a good description of how to make it work, or fix the plethora of errors I get trying to using the Vaunix-supplied dll.
