Is there some known way to install virtualhere on an IGEL thin client

Submitted by marcdiament on #1

We need to connect a usb device plugged into an IGEL thin client (linux based custom OS) and redirect it to a server where we connect to the device and service it. 

Has anyone installed or ran virtual here on an IGEL?

In theory virtualhere will run on IGEL OS because its just Linux. But i suspect its locked down. 

They want $5k USD to "signup" to their partner program so i doubt you could just install virtualhere without some sort of block they add. If you can get ssh access to the IGEL OS, then you could try running the virtualhere server install script here https://github.com/virtualhere/script

Hi. We have installed your software on IGEL and it works great. We built a solution that requires your software and have a customer who wants it. 
We want to publish your server software to the IGEL app store and we are an IGEL Ready partner. We would like to work out something in writing that gives us permission to publish your software and we will be tier 1 to support it with any IGEL customers.  Our client likely needs about 300 client licenses to support a single hardware device redirect on the IGEL thin clients.  How can we talk about this?
