Might this installer (which"works regardless of your kernel version") work on Ubuntu (for DOCK110REU)?
The DL installer incorrectly concludes my kernel is too old (4.4 > 3.14):
$ sudo ./displaylink-driver-1.0.68.run
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing DisplayLink Linux Driver 1.0.68 100%
DisplayLink Linux Software 1.0.68 install script called: install
Distribution discovered: Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa
Unsatisfied dependencies. Missing component: Kernel version 4.4.0-0-exton is too old. At least 3.14 is required.
This is a fatal error, cannot install DisplayLink Linux Software.
Please let me know the right place to ask this question if not here. Will be grateful for any pointers.
Thanks

It works regardless of your kernel version.
displaylink-debian licence is GPLv3 and if you’d like to add any changes or to extend it to any other distribution then Debian, be my guest! |
