Hello,

Thank you for your patience.

As I have mentioned yesterday, we were working on a installation fix for Ubuntu 20.04.

Here it is: https://www.displaylink.com/downloads/file?id=1576

Please verify that version and if you would face any issues inform us.

Thank you very much for your cooperation!

Best regards,
Jakub

Hi Jakub,

Unfortunately, after using the below, my system hangs after login. I can only get to a recovery root command prompt. Using the script to attempt uninstall of the driver does not work, "Display not found" (it appear to assume a graphical environment).

Can someone over there provide instructions to disable / remove the driver from the command line, so I can get back in working order?

Thanks, Ken

UPDATE: using .run, I was almost able to get somewhere by booting into the -29 kernel (required) and using LANG=C for the installer, but am stuck at "component linux-headers not available" even through headers for -29 are installed.

Using displaylink-debian.sh, --uninstall is still blocked by "Can't open display", alas.

UPDATE2: I got out of this situation by installing lightdm from the command line, which got me into a UI. Problem may only be with gdm3? Able to uninstall, will post the loop situation that caused hang from syslog when I have a chance.[/B]
