ASM1142 USB 3.1 and USB 3.1 Type-C to HDMI HD Adapter

Hello,
I have bought USB 3.1 Type-C to HDMI HD Adapter from:
http://www.dx.com/p/usb-3-1-type-c-to-h … Im5cJ-a9hE

I have a Tuxdeo Laptop (Clevo) with:

01:00.0 USB controller: ASMedia Technology Inc. ASM1142 USB 3.1 Host Controller

I have archlinux up to date:

Linux sluga 4.8.13-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Dec 9 07:24:34 CET 2016 x86_64 GNU/Linux

My problem:
It doesn't work

I have tried to find the cause going the classic way.
lspci -> shows up the controller
lsusb -> there isn't anything about the USB 3.1
dmesg -> nothing at all (off what i understand)

So i have searched for the controller driver and all i could find is that it is supported by the kernel since 4.6? Although no files to download.

Support various Linux Kernels.

I tested the converter on Windows 10 and it works!

I know a lot of time has passed. I bought another device that is a USB Type-C to VGA and this won't work either.

I found this post https://askubuntu.com/questions/714169/ … s-on-15-10 and

tail -f /var/log/kern.log

command doesn't print anything when i connect or disconnect the device so i guess it is the driver problem.

I just got an older Tuxedo Book BU1406 and I have the exact situation described here. The same adapter works as expect on another machine I own running ubuntu
