Default DisplayLink USB 3.0 on Linux Mint 17.2

I could try install displaylink USB 3.0. It doesn't work.

I tried the solution, but I have the same problem:
http://displaylink.org/forum/showthread.php?t=64322

solution:

he way I see it, the problem with the current installer is that no init daemon is defined in the installation script.

The way I did it (IIRC) was to install the file you downloaded like you normally would

Code:

./displaylink-driver-1.0.335.run

then I unpacked this file

Code:

./displaylink-driver-1.0.335.run --keep --noexec

and opened the displaylink-installer.sh and changed line 9 to match the daemon I wanted to use (upstart worked, didn't try systemd).

Code:

SYSTEMINITDAEMON=upstart

And ran the extracted script

Code:

displaylink-installer.sh install
