Dell XPS 13 9350 + Dell 4-1 adapter
I bought this and it works on Windows.
http://accessories.ap.dell.com/sna/p...&sku=492-11742 But I can't get VGA/HDMI to work on Ubuntu 14.04 (that I've installed manually, originally this was a Windows machine). I've tried to run the driver from here http://www.displaylink.com/downloads/ubuntu Code:
[18:27]ned:~/Downloads/DisplayLink_recent$ sudo ./displaylink-driver-1.1.62.run Code:
DKMS make.log for evdi-1.1.62 for kernel 4.4.0-040400rc6-generic (x86_64) can anyone help me to fix this, please? |
it looks like the build system you have is not the one used to build your kernel.
Find what kernel package you have, and then try running: apt-get update apt-get upgrade apt-get build-dep linux-image-3.19.0-59-generic # <-- (fix for your kernel version) and then try again. |
those instructions will downgrade my kernel version, right?
I can't do that because I need the one I have -> kernel 4.4.0-040400rc6-generic otherwise the wifi won't work. I had to upgrade it from 4.3 (I think it was 4.3) any other ideas? |
I've just installed the new linux kernel, 4.6, released three days ago.
Still the same error.. |
You don't have to downgrade. Install linux-headers package that matches the kernel you're using, so /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build points to something which has headers :)
Cheers, Michal |
so I only need to do this?
Code:
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) |
OK, I read this more carefully. I think you have the right headers installed already, but your compiler is a bit outdated:
Code:
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-4.4.0-040400rc6-generic' See similar problem for VirtualBox kernel modules - they also use DKMS. https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=74238 Cheers, Michal |
I have the right headers, indeed (kernel 4.6.0-040600-generic )
I have also the most recent GCC -> 4.9 If I try Code:
sudo apt-get install gcc-4.9 Code:
gcc-4.9-base is already the newest version. do I maybe need gcc 5? |
I've managed!
I'm running Ubuntu 14.04, kernel 4.6 (just released a few days ago). You need to be using gcc4.9. Even if you have it, it's not used by default. Follow these steps http://askubuntu.com/questions/46665...u-14-04#581497 and then just execute Code:
sudo ./displaylink-driver-1.1.62.run The DE100 dongle works now :D |
now, since I've done all these thing the system has became laggy, not responsive as it was before..
windows are dragging, gets to a point that I have to restart the machine. Can it be something to do with the gcc ? It also kicks me out of my session and makes me log in back in. Like if it's a reboot. Damn it! |
