Lenovo Docking Station - Ubuntu

Sure! I went to the displaylink site and downloaded the driver. It turned out to be a zip file, so I unpacked it and inside was a .run file. I opened the terminal and went to the downloads folder.

Then I made the file executable with this command chmod and ran it by typing ./"filename.run" (I entered the file name). A lot of things happened on screen but was prompted with a Y/N and went for Y. I then got a message that I needed to be root to use the script so used the sudo command on it and followed the instructions.

I think this is as close I can get without providing screenshots. Was this helpful? Sorry, I am bit new to the help page and not sure what info is enough.

Thanks again!
