Driver for Lenovo Thinkvision LT1421 usb-display

Post by pekkaleskela »

Correction to previous topic:
Actual model name of Lenovo usb-display is Thinkvision LT1421.
And I'm trying to find a driver for Fit-pc2 running Linux Mint.

I'm not able to test it because I don't have other Linux Mint computer. I only have HP laptop with Windows and there the usb-display works fine.

You should obtain the a driver for Linux from the manufacturer of the monitor. The Linux Mint is an Ubuntu derivative, so a driver the will suit Ubuntu, should suite a Linux Mint too

There's a Linux kernel driver (called udlfb) for that display (at least since linux-3.2). So it should be possible to use it under any recent GNU/Linux distribution. I don't have any experience with it, tho.
