linux-headers is wrongly declared as missing and blocks installation #28

Closed pprw closed 8 years ago

pprw commented 8 years ago

Hello,

I am unable to install display-link on my debian unstable.

I have a fatal error message complaining about linux-headers but the linux headers for my kernel are installed !

How can I fix that?

error:

Unsatisfied dependencies. Missing component: Linux headers for running kernel, 4.7.0-1-amd64.
This is a fatal error, cannot install DisplayLink Linux Software.
# apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) dkms lsb-release
[...]
dkms is already the newest version (2.2.1.0+git20160527-1).
linux-headers-4.7.0-1-amd64 is already the newest version (4.7.6-1).
lsb-release is already the newest version (9.20160629).

Full log:

# ./bin/displaylink-debian-master/displaylink-debian.sh

cd /lib/modules/your_kernel_version/build ln -s Makefile Kconfig dont forget to install linux-source for your kernel then restart the installer

Thank you. It worked !

And I don't have any problem after that to use my external monitor. Of course I have to launch manually xrandr every time I disconnect/reboot (like hotplug doesn't work on debian) it but it works.
