I bought this device because its reviews said it worked under Ubuntu. However, there are no drivers for ubuntu on the website.

I did install DKMS, which is the first step according to their website, before installing the drivers.

I installed the Display Link drivers, but it still didn't work. (I did restart.)

Using lsusb I found this information about the device:

Bus 004 Device 002: ID 0711:5601 Magic Control Technology Corp.

I googled for Magic Control Technology Corp linux drivers, found information about "userful" drivers, but couldn't find a download link.

I have successfully got it to work by doing the following:

On your desktop, click the Ubuntu icon, type terminal, and then press Enter.

Type:

 sudo apt-get install dkms

and then press Enter.

Then download the driver from here:

Extract the files to a chosen location. Then follow the install guidance in the txt. file

From official site of a product:

Compatibility:
Windows® 10 (32/64)
Windows 8 / 8.1 (32/64)
Windows 7(32/64)

There is no Linux, so where did you find an info about Ubuntu?
