Ty for FINALLY looking at returning to support Linux PC users. It has been a depressing few years not being able to use Comodo. I for one have also wished to see CIS on the Linux desktop.
Looking forward to hearing any news on this.
Has anyone heard of any new updates pertaining to the Linux version since Melih last post on December 7th?
No news.
It supports:
Linux distributions(both x86 and x86_64):
- Redhat Enterprise Linux 5.9 and 6.3
- CentOS 5.9 and 6.3
- Fedora 17
- SUSE Linux Enterprise 11
- openSUSE 12.1
- Debian 6.0
- Ubuntu 12.04
- Mint 13
When can I install this updated version on Ubuntu 16.04??
When can I install this updated version on Ubuntu 16.04??
The version offered on the website is a couple years old. If you want to use Comodo AV on Linux, you need to install the 32bit version. It appears that is the only version that will install BUT it will not auto-launch on start-up and it will complain of a file driver which according to many, the fix will not work on any Kernal over a certain version, 4.5 I believe.
I have decided to wait for this new version that Melih mentioned to be released.
I’m interested to know if there are any special procedures I need to be aware of if I’m compressing data with Linux. I was reading an article about how to do it here: Archiving and Compression Using Linux - IONOS. I’m wondering if anybody has experience with this and what should I keep in mind in order to not put my computer at risk?

I am using windows::linux (50/50)
In the meantime I am enjoying the Linux Mint 17.3 Mate 64-bit with kernel 3.8.7
It was a tricky business to get is installed and properly configured using a driver.tar found elsewhere. But it works really smooth and does all the things as it should.
I had a look at Linux mint 18.1 but had to give up as it has poor support for my laptop hardware.
I am no geek whatever still I think Linux mint 17.3 is the best stable release. Why not give it a try?
Got LinuxMint 17 (qiana) 3.13.0-24-generic working with this version
Finally took the trouble to fix the post_setup.sh errors. The fix consisted of downloading a new driver.tar, pointed to by a kind soul (KINTA-JAPAN ) on this site. Then post_setup.sh worked (!) . Something I bypassed for years.
(I realize this note (and my OS) is out of date, but better the OS that works than one that might.)

Hi
I am running Centos and it installed fine on 5.9 but under 6.9 I have an error when I run csh
I have a grep command in the .cshrc file and it gives the error now
/bin/grep: Interrupted system call
If I disable the COMODO then it is OK again.
Any ideas on how to get over this as I like the interface and otherwise it functions great
Does not work for me - RedirFS modules do not compile. Tried with 64-bit and 32-bit. Using 64-bit Linux Mint 18.1 with newest stable kernel. There is also unmet dependency libssl0.9.8 which does not exist in newer distros because 1.0 is already out. My results are here - Comodo Antivirus in Linux - Pastebin.com Expecting an updated and fixed version of CAVL.
“libssl0.9.8 which does not exist” I don’t understand, libssl.so.0.9.8 was in my download for mint. But I am a little out of touch for library searching during compilations these days.
Installed on Linux Mint 18.1 x64, version CAVL of the x32
On Ubuntu 17.04 does not work, if i try run post_setup.sh it fails on compilation kernel driver :
This also happens on ubuntu 16.04
Build the RedirFS kernel modules for real-time protection…

This problem seems to be caused by the kernel’s ‘struct inode’ has changed so that ‘i_mutex’ no longer exists on linux kernel > 4.7
Can you kindly fix the problem?
Hi, I am going to try it on Mint 18 Serena. I will add feed back.
Any advice ?
As wrote to Comodo Forum - it sounds like CAV for Linux is dead. Do not try to use it as it won’t be possible due to unresolved and outdated dependencies. Also Comodo Tech Support confirmed that they do not support Linux version and as we see, do not develop either. So there is time to move on and use something else that works.

I open it with Discover and get “dependency resolution failed” I am new to Debian and Linux what am I missing? What package…?
installing a previous version of libssl like 0.9.8 is NOT a solution cause other critical packages are depended on newer versions like 1.0. or 1.1
so comodo needs an update asap !
Do not hijack other topics to cross post as it is against the forums rules, CAV for linux hasn’t been updated for a very long time and most likely never will. It is mostly an abandoned product, so use something else that is actively maintained and updated if you really wish to have an AV for linux.
