DMX 4 Linux has been the de-facto library for communicating with DMX devices under Linux.
Supporting over 14 DMX interfaces including PCI, USB and parallel port models, the DMX 4 Linux architecture is easily extensible.
Alternatives include the driver framework OLA (with many DMX over IP protocols) and the controller app QLC that directly supports Enttec Open DMX USB Anyma uDMX , and with a special kernel module the Rodin1.
