Hello
I have a Lenovo Thinkpad t480 with Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and would like to connect 2 external monitors (1x Asus 24 ", 1920 x 1080 & 1x AOC 24 ", 1920 x 1080) with the docking station. Does anyone have any experience with this? I read on Reddit that it is often problematic.

Accepted Answer

Hello,

Yes, Ubuntu is one of the supported systems. But the DisplayLink app can just use the laptop's CPU on Ubuntu - if you want to use the docking station for any GPU-intensive work, then a docking station based on another technology would be a better fit for you.
If you would contact our Technical support - support@itecproduct.com - we could recommend you a docking station. But please let us know what other requirements do you have (number of monitors, their resolution).

Best Regards

Unfortunately, I can't answer that directly. I have Windows 10 as my operating system, and it works there.
