Hi All,
We have just released a new version of the Ubuntu driver, v1.3.52.
You can download it from our download page (http://www.displaylink.com/downloads/ubuntu), as usual.
It delivers the following improvements:
Support for DL-6xxx generation devices
Installer is now working on Ubuntu 17.04A2
Fix for 1366x768 screens not lighting up
Fixes for screen corruptions in environments that did not redraw full screen
Other bugfixes and improvements listed in the release note
As always, looking forward to feedback - please use separate threads if you encounter issues!
Please do attach logs for any reports - use our Linux support tool (http://support.displaylink.com/knowledgebase/articles/757047-how-can-i-report-ubuntu-issues-to-displaylink) to collect necessary diagnostic files.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The evdi kernel module has no signature, which means systems with Secure Boot enabled won't load it. In order for the driver to work, you need to either sign the kernel module (https://github.com/Canonical-kernel/Ubuntu-kernel/blob/master/Documentation/module-signing.txt) yourself, or disable Secure Boot. More help on AskUbuntu thread (https://askubuntu.com/questions/760671/could-not-load-vboxdrv-after-upgrade-to-ubuntu-16-04-and-i-want-to-keep-secur) explaining similar solution for VirtualBox modules.
Thanks,
Michal
