Linett was active from 1921 to 1928. I don't have any further information. My guess would be 1923.

Okay, that'll do it - though the picture was taken in around 1921

I found this picture on a Norwegian site, where they say that Linett was made by the Norwegian-Austrian Automobile company. The reason it was made in Wien, Austria that the Norwegians felt there's enough experience, while in their home country there's not much. Linett is a combination of two Norwegian words: small and neat (liten and nett)
This was a 500 kg cyclecar, powered by a 13-hp air-cooled engine. It featured  chain drive, a patented non-electric starting device which could be operated from the driver's seat and Bosch lighting. Apparently it was sold in Oslo not in Austria

No luck with my guesses..  :'(
But I can add this:
Quote
"Die am 14. Januar 1921 in Wien gegründete Linett-Automobilfabrik Ges.m.b.H., geleitet von einem Ingenieur Alfred Raimann, hatte vorher mit Fahrzeugen aus ehemaligen Heeresbeständen gehandelt und produzierte bis Ende 1927 in geringer Zahl Cyclecars, über die keine näheren technischen Angaben vorliegen."
