Many modern Linux distributions also provide good support for Bluetooth through the BlueZ stack, which has a comprehensive list of Bluetooth profiles that it supports.

In either case, no driver is necessary as both SPP-mode and HID-mode communication use the generic profiles with no modification or adaptation. A modern Linux distribution running a window manager typically has packages available for managing Bluetooth devices. These packages are well-supported and in most cases work with Bluetooth devices quite well out of the box.
