This mini tutorial covers how to setup an ASUS MB169B+ on Fedora 23.

Overview

chmod 755 displaylink-driver-1.1.62.run 
sudo ./displaylink-driver-1.1.62.run
Verifying archive integrity... All good.

DisplayLink Linux Software 1.1.62 install script called: install
Distribution discovered: "Fedora release 23 (Twenty Three)"
