Question Trying to install DisplayLink-Ubuntu-1.0.138.zip with Linux 4.1

I'm trying to install DisplayLink-Ubuntu-1.0.138.zip in my Debian testing/amd64 box, which has a 4.1 kernel. It fails in what seems to be a pre-installation check, saying:

Code:
$ sudo ./displaylink-driver-1.0.138.run 
[sudo] password for jgb: 
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing DisplayLink Linux Driver 1.0.138  100%  
DisplayLink Linux Software 1.0.138 install script called: install
Distribution discovered: Debian GNU/Linux testing (stretch)
WARNING: Kernel version 4.1.0-2-amd64 is not supported. Highest supported version is 3.19.
Unsatisfied dependencies. Missing component: Linux headers for running kernel, 4.1.0-2-amd64.
This is a fatal error, cannot install DisplayLink Linux Software
According to the release notes, however, it seems it should work with 4.x kernels...

Any idea?
