I am getting it to work on OpenSUSE 13.2 and I got as far as after I loaded DKMS on the OS (obtained here https://software.opensuse.org/package/dkms). The displaylink-driver-1.0.68.run file was able to recognize DKMS. Problem is the kernel header that the run file is requesting. The kernel I get when I do a uname -r is 3.16.7-24-desktop. I did install all of the c++ compiler and gcc stuff including the linux-glibc-devel package. When I was looking at the version of the linux-glibc-devel package available on YaST, I see that it is for version 3.16-2.1.7. Is there anyway to get the package specifically for 3.16.7-24-desktop, even if I have to get a generic version of it somewhere? Also, I did try extracting the run file using --noexec –keep argument and I don't see anything extracted, even though it said that the extraction was complete. I am doing all of this in root.
