* displaylink.service fails to start? Make sure [UEFI is disabled](https://github.com/AdnanHodzic/displaylink-debian/issues/15)

##### Most common Ubuntu related issues:

* displaylink.service fails to start

UEFI needs to be disabled. Reference: [issue #15](https://github.com/AdnanHodzic/displaylink-debian/issues/15)

##### Most common Debian Jessie related issues:
* systemctl status dlm.service failure
* Glibc GLIBCXX_3.4.21 missing

Due to older version of libstdc++6 in Jessie, you need to download and install version from [Stretch release](https://packages.debian.org/stretch/libstdc++6). After package has been updated, run displaylink-debian and select "Re-install" option.
