I got the same problem like Segaja mentioned, no displays with kernel(-headers) 6.6.1.arch1-1. After downgrading kernel to 6.5.9.arch2-1 and reinstalling evdi if works fine again.

I can confirm at this point (displaylink 5.8-0) it works with evdi 1.14.1-0 and linux kernel 6.1. So no need of evdi-compat-git right now.

The latest version is not compatible with the 6.5 hardened kernel. It doesn't throw any errors but the displays just don't show up in (x|a)randr.

The package hasn't been updated in over 2 months. @rhermes I'm willing to maintain it.

This package is out of date, because newest displaylink version is 5.8 | Aug 9, 2023 according to upstream URL.

I started a runit version by forking https://github.com/seb-sky/aur-displaylink.

I have a draft PR here: https://github.com/e-dong/aur-displaylink-runit/pull/1 I would like feedback please before publishing this on AUR.

Hi, For my Dell D6000 it was crucial to disable the USB power management.

I overwrote the 99-displaylink.rules file.

With this one: https://github.com/DisplayLink/evdi/issues/356#issuecomment-1103725599

Briefly this additional RUN+="/bin/sh -c 'echo 0 > /sys%p/../port/usb3_lpm_permit' Solved my (kinda periodic) disconnect issue.

I explained the issue in more details here: https://old.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/16b0rh6/i_finally_found_the_solution_to_an_issue_which_i/

Do you mind to include this change in this package by default? Thanks!

@sebdotv as suggested per the "out-of-date" comment by endorfina, evdi dependency should be set to <1.15 to avoid breaking the driver in case of an upcoming evdi driver update.

I created a PR on your aur-displaylink git repository.

For convenience I've pushed a patch with the changes suggested by julian.poidevin to https://github.com/seb-sky/aur-displaylink

This is broken for me when using the latest evdi release 1.14.1-0 version. Needs to be updated to displaylink v5.8.

I did that manually using :

pkgver=5.8
_releasedate=2023-08
_pkgfullver=5.8.0-63.33

And it works as intended.
