[NAME]  Nice to see that Dell is linking to the official source rather than hosting a version that will almost inevitably be outdated at any given time.  And somehow I missed that Synaptics owns DisplayLink.  I wonder if that was a recent acquisition or if it was always that way.  In any case, once you install that software, you should be good.  And if not, update the drivers for your GPU as well, since there was a recent conflict between a new Intel Graphics driver and DisplayLink, so that can happen.  And if it still doesn't work, update the D6000's firmware if you haven't already.  Good luck!
Hello,  As the subject indicates, I am attempting to connect an existing Dell D6000 docking station with an HP Elitebook 840 G7 laptop (Win10 x64 OS). However, when I connect the dock either through the USB-C or USB-A interface, my dual Acer monitors do not display anything. I know the docking station is functional as it works just fine with an older Dell Latitude laptop I have. The dock also functions normally with a Samsung Spin 7 notebook PC I have. In researching this topic a bit on my own (ref. link 1, link 2), I believe the Dell Dxxxx docks use a display technology called DisplayLink. Which I assume is not something that is native to the HP Elitebook. To address this issue, can I simply install the latest version of the DisplayLink driver from Synaptics (linked here)? Or is the issue more complicated than that? Can this configuration be made to work at all or is there some type of major incompatibility? Any feedback/suggestions on this topic would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance! In the meantime, I will continue to research this and possibly try some quick fixes on my own.
