First Ubuntu beta driver and 4.x+ kernels
Hi,
Since we have concentrated on supporting Ubuntu 14.04 LTS which does not include 4.x by default, the logic detecting the version in installer script will currently not deal with 4.x+ kernels correctly, and will present a misleading error message claiming the kernel version is too old. A workaround is to extract the installer with Code:
--keep --noexec Remove or change the kernel version check - look for a block starting with a comment "Required kernel version". Then, after saving the file, you can start the modified installer manually by running: Code:
chmod +x displaylink-installer.sh sudo ./displaylink-installer.sh install Thanks, Michal |
