I was able to get the Dell D6000 Dock to work with my ThinkPad X230 thanks to this video. I had no idea I had to download the DisplayLink drivers for Ubuntu. I thought Ubuntu would have them included automatically. Luckily your video showed me the way! I downloaded the Ubuntu drivers for 20.04 and installed them. I hooked up my X230 via the USB-A connection. I was able to get the laptop to display, plus two more 1920x1200 U2415 monitors. Thanks again for creating this video.

Hi José Alfredo de León G., I am so glad this video was able to help you, I know not many people use Ubuntu compare to Windows and Mac. I did test the Ethernet and audio in D6000 dock under Ubuntu and very happy to report it all working =).

thank you, good stuff btw. just a small hint, instead of navigating to the destination ("cd Desktop") you can also just type "sudo" and drag&drop the executable (or whatever, works with any file) onto the terminal and it will automatically put the path in there

Thank you very much zocker1600, I didn't know that and its been well past 20 years since I have used linux when I learnt it and that was Red Hat back then too. I'm not a linux user myself and since touching Linux back in my uni days (my linux knowledge is yep that long ago) it's changed and I haven't been maintaning my knowledge in linux all these years. Only started to do some videos on Ubuntu just to assist people who do use linux distros find docks since I already have access to the products that's what I can help with my limited knowledge. I welcome hints very much, so thank you zocker1600!

I saw your video before buying the dock, its lagging like hell, even makes my non displaylink monitor super laggy, overall the entire system gets very unresponsive. Running fairly recent hardware, i7 10510U ubuntu 20 should have been able to handle it. Don't buy this shitty dock and anything else that uses display link.
