-        DisplayLink Ubuntu Software Release Note

-

-Version: v5.4.0

-Build: posix/55-8031-g4ea27e82367 (153)

-

-Date: 25th March 2021

-

-Extensible Virtual Display Interface version included: v1.9.1 (0f1ad21)

-=============================================================================

-=============================================================================

-

-

-A. Introduction

-===============

-

-This is DisplayLink Driver Software v5.4.0 for Ubuntu. It provides production quality support for DisplayLink USB 3.0 devices on specific variants of desktop Ubuntu Linux.

-

-The driver enables video support for products using DisplayLink USB 3.0 technology. Standard native Ubuntu drivers provide support for DisplayLink audio and Ethernet interfaces.

-

-

-A1. Important notes about DL-6xxx, DL5xxx, DL-3x00 and DL-41xx Firmware

-=======================================================================

-

-This software release contains an embedded firmware image. DL-6xxx, DL-5xxx, DL-3xxx and DL-41xx devices will be automatically upgraded with this firmware upon connection if required.

-

-The upgrade is silent, therefore screens connected to DL-6xxx, DL-5xxx, DL-3xxx or DL-41xx devices may require a few seconds to appear when devices are connected for the first time, or after devices have been used on other platforms and OSes.

-C.  Bugs fixed in this release

-==============================

-- Added support for kernel 5.11 and 5.12.

-- Added nVidia g-sync monitors support.

-- Added 5K Ultrawide (5120x1440 @ 60 Hz) display support for DisplayLink DL-6000 series products.

-- Other reliability improvements.

-

-D. Supported O/S variants

-=========================

-

-This release has been prepared to be compatible with Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. Other variants and editions may be compatible if they meet minimum O/S requirements, but are not supported by DisplayLink.

-

-The Software contains binaries which work on Intel x86 platform (32 bit and 64 bit).

-Supported Linux Kernel version range is from 4.15 to 5.12.

-Minimum supported Xorg version is 1.16, minimum supported Mutter (Wayland) version is 3.32.

-

-E. Release components

-=====================

-The Software consists of an open-source kernel mode driver (EVDI) with an accompanying library (libevdi), and a supporting binary application compatible with Intel x86 platform.

-Source code for the open-source components can be found at DisplayLink's GitHub, https://github.com/DisplayLink

-

-F. How to install

-=================

-

-To install the release, from a terminal window, with root permissions use the command:

-

-sudo ./displaylink-driver-XXXX.run

-

-Where displaylink-driver-XXXX.run is the name of the extracted DisplayLink driver.

-

-The dkms framework is required for installation of DisplayLink. This can be installed with the command: sudo apt-get install dkms

-

-More detailed information on installation can be found at http://support.displaylink.com/knowledgebase/articles/615714#ubuntu

-

-G. Supported features & hardware

-================================

-

-This driver will support up to 2 displays connected to DisplayLink devices. More than 2 DisplayLink displays may work, but not supported or tested by DisplayLink.

-

-Resolutions up to 5K Ultrawide are supported on capable DisplayLink hardware.

-

-Device families supported:

-- DL-6xxx

-- DL-5xxx

-- DL-41xx

-- DL-3xxx

-

-DL-1x5 and DL-1x0 devices use the open source udl driver, which is not developed or maintained by DisplayLink.

-

-H. Limitations & known issues

-=============================

-

-A list of limitations and known issues can be found here:

-http://support.displaylink.com/knowledgebase/articles/641668

-

-I. Future development

-======================

-

-DisplayLink are open to suggestions and feedback on improving the proposed architecture and will gladly review patches or proposals from the developer community. Please find a current list of areas we identify as requiring attention below.

-

-- In this release, the user mode driver service is running with root permissions. In future versions, we would like to reduce the privilege level required for this process - e.g. by using a separate low-privileged user and a separate group, to ensure the permissions needed for driving DisplayLink screens are as low as possible.

-

-- The communication between the EVDI kernel module and the wrapper libevdi library is not access-controlled or authenticated. This could be improved in future releases, making it harder to compromise the data EVDI is sending and receiving.

-

-- EVDI kernel module driver is currently a platform_driver, for multiple reasons; most importantly because virtual displays are not discoverable, i.e. cannot be enumerated at the hardware level. EVDI is also a generic device, not tied to any particular kind of device, transport layer or a bus.
