Wow!! Congratulations psypete,

I am not an alpine linux user, I use mageia havenīt been able to make the driver work on my distribution, we at work have 24 devices on windows but we plan to move to linux so we are looking for a brand that it's compatible with a the distro we use.

If the drivers uses opensource software I wonder why not just include them in the kernel and all distros would become compatible.

Unfortunately I'm not that savy on making rpm packages, the ones created for fedora use fedora systemd scriplets not compatible with mandriva forks.

But like I said, I just canīt understand why Display Link Doesnīt work witj kernel devs to include them

One last thing, the .run file installer could probably be fixed to use dnf install as well as apt install but unfortunately there is no interest on DisplayLink side... I amd kind of dissapointed, but I have to accept that no other Dock Station deverloper is as good as Display Link, they are just awesome.

Regards
