Copy link

Get the following error when running in Ubuntu 16.04;

./displaylink-debian.sh: 33: ./displaylink-debian.sh: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

Thanks for any help and thanks for working to make DL less painful in Linux! :)

I just verified, and install worked flawlessly for me on Ubuntu 16.04.

Please reset code changes and pull the latest sources git reset --hard && git pull and run ./displaylink-debian.sh again

Cloned a fresh copy and still get the same issue. Could it be related to something else, like the version of bash or something similar?

I tried this again today now that DisplayLink have updated the drivers and it worked perfectly.

Thanks for your help.
