Has anyone tried this on a Linux system?

Closest I tried this on was entering inputs on a retro pie system. Worked just fine

Does anyone know why there are 4 ports for the big buttons?

You can buy extra big buttons on the 8BitDo website.

What version of blutooth does this support? Does it support Bluetooth 2.1 + Enhanced Data Rate?

The 8BitDo website simply says it supports "Bluetooth® Low Energy."
