I used the Sidetrack monitor for six weeks running Ubuntu 20.04 after installing drivers and running an application. I reinstalled the operating system, but lost the drivers, the application and the location where I obtained them.

  1. Download the driver from DisplayLink: https://www.displaylink.com/downloads/ubuntu

  2. Extract the driver from your Downloads folder.

  3. Open a terminal in the extracted file path and run the install script:

sudo ./displaylink-driver-XXXX.run Note that the actual .run will vary based on the version you downloaded. Power user tip here: type out "sudo ./displ" and hit tab to allow the command line to autocomplete the driver for you. I often use this to avoid mistyping a file.
