help with ubuntu 18.04 and USB 3.0 to HDMI adapter
Hi folks,
My goal is to get setup with two monitors. I already have one working via HDMI cable directly from the HDMI out on the laptop. There is only one HDMI out. Was hoping to get another one working with a spare USB output. I have this laptop running ubuntu 18.04 LTS: Code:
$ lsb_release -a https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DWXWW63 I downloaded displaylink-driver-5.2.14.run from here: https://www.displaylink.com/downloads/ubuntu And followed instructions here to install it: https://support.displaylink.com/know...on-legacy-ubun The install ran without error. However the monitor the adapter is plugged into gets no signal. It shows a dialog saying no signal then goes black. I am not a hardware expert so would be very grateful for tips! did I buy the wrong adapter? Thanks! Jesse |
I solved this by getting a DisplayPort to HDMI cable. Didn't realize that DisplayPort was a thing. Should have got that to begin with!
