DisplayLink driver installer for Debian and Ubuntu based Linux distributions: Debian, Ubuntu, Elementary OS, Mint, Kali, Deepin and many more!Full list of all supported platforms

DisplayLink releases its drivers only for Ubuntu xx.04 LTS. Hence if you run any other Ubuntu version or any other Linux distribution DisplayLink will not work as expected.

displaylink-debian allows seamless installation of the officialDisplayLink drivers tailored to work for most of the Debian based Linux distributions regardless of which Linux kernel version (>4.15) you're using.

1. Download the repo, cd in the directory and run the shell script with sudo:

   git clone https://github.com/AdnanHodzic/displaylink-debian.gitcd displaylink-debiansudo ./displaylink-debian.sh

2. Then consult thePost Install Guide to make sure everything works as intended.

Please note: Your external monitor/s may not work as expected unless you perform additional steps as described in thePost Installation Guide.
