Why would this be the case -- the licence agreement applies to Linux as much as Windows. Does your version support ECW files? Use gdalinfo to see supported raster formats. What does it report?

OK ECW support should work out of the box on WIndows if you are able to use that. I have never really tied on Linux so can't help there.

    Ubuntu 14.04 although I have access to Windows Vista and XP.

        Hello,

        I have recently tried to get QGIS to work with ECW files.

        Despite several days of multiple
        installs/reinstalls/uninstalls/lib-upgrades/etc I have not
        managed to get ECW to be opened by QGIS. This is really
        frustrating as I am keen to use QGIS on an upcoming project.

        As an alternative, I would like to pose the following couple
        of questions...

        My first question is, what is a good alternative to ECW files
        for use on QGIS?

        The second question, how do I convert the ECW file into this
        format without using a propriety software package?
