Since we launched Slimbook, many of you have asked us to connect up to two extra monitors to your Slimbook (which added to the Slimbook itself would make a total of 3 screens).
As of today, you have for sale in the accessories section of the web site the Docking Station Universal HDMI Gigalan USB 3.0 with which apart from the above mentioned, you will have 3 extra USB 3.0 ports (requires 1 to connect, then you will have one remaining on your Slimbook and these 3 extra, making a total of 4 USB 3.0 ports), a RJ45 GigaLAN 10/100/1000 network input and a Jack 3.5 audio input and output.
Dock driver installation
To proceed with the installation of the program in our system, we will execute a Terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T).
First we will need to install DKMS, so we will type the following:
sudo apt-get install dkms |
Once DKMS is installed, we will proceed to download the driver desde nuestra sección de Descargas.
Con el driver ya descargado, de ser un fichero .zip tendremos que descomprimirlo, volvemos a ejecutar un terminal en el directorio donde se haya descargado el fichero.
Por último, pasaremos a instalar el driver escribiendo lo siguiente:
sudo chmod 755 displaylink-driver.run sudo ./displaylink-driver.run |
Una vez realizados estos pasos y reiniciando el sistema, nuestro dock estará preparado para ser conectado y debería de funcionar perfectamente.
