I tried to install the driver version 1.3.52 on Debian 9 (stretch) kernel 4.9.0-3-amd64 like this

$ sudo ./displaylink-driver-1.3.52.run
but I get following error

Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing DisplayLink Linux Driver 1.3.52 100%
DisplayLink Linux Software 1.3.52 install script called: install
Distribution discovered: Debian GNU/Linux 9.0 (stretch)
Unsatisfied dependencies. Missing component: Linux headers for running kernel, 4.9.0-3-amd64.
This is a fatal error, cannot install DisplayLink Linux Software.


Of course I checked whether the Linux headers are there
$ sudo apt-get install linux-headers-4.9.0-3-amd64
and indeed they are already installed.

Am I missing something here?

I got it to work using this driver, instead of the original one:
