Missing component: Linux headers for running kernel

Open slavafomin opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Hello! I'm getting the following error when trying to install the Ubuntu driver:

$ sudo ./displaylink-driver-5.6.0-59.176.run

Unsatisfied dependencies. Missing component: Linux headers for running kernel, 5.15.10-051510-generic.
This is a fatal error, cannot install DisplayLink Linux Software.
$ cat /etc/issue
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
$ uname -a
Linux 5.15.10-051510-generic #202112171031 SMP Fri Dec 17 10:53:39 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

What could be the problem? Thanks.

You seem to be missing the kernel headers package:

$ sudo apt install linux-headers-generic
