Hi.. posted yesterday but not sure what happened appear my post never made it (applogies if this appears twice)
Trying to get Display Ports working through my Port replicator on Ubuntu 15.10 but having no luck.
The software always installs and service runs fine but not sure if I even need this driver or something else? How do I even know if this is the software I need to make this work?
No matter what I do I can't make the screens wake up.
