Raspbee Zigbee-controller for Raspberry Pi

[xaph]

Hi!

Im new to this forum and home automation and I was wondering, is it possible to use this controller to control Philips Hue-lamps with Domoticz?

Link to Zigbee-controller

If its possible, what do I need to do on my Raspberry Pi (which has rasbian on it)?

Sorry if my questions are too "noob"...

Just buy the standard Philip HUE gateway and install Domotics on a standard Raspberry PI. It should work out of the box. The Philips HUE gateway connects to you Wifi network and the raspberry with domotics as well. If you configure Philips HUE in Domotics it will discover the gateway..
Unless you want to connect to other Zigbee devices. IN that case you could you the mentioned solution, although I am not familiar with it...

Good luck

If you look at the homepage that I posted, to this Zigbee-controller, it says that "control Philips Hue bulbs WITHOUT the gateway". But I don't know how to do it, or what I need to do...

I find that hard to believe as I know the guys who developed Hue. And as far as I know the Hue system uses a protocol similar to Zigbee but with some minor modifications specific to this Philips product.
