@jtech32 Thanks man! The build passed, working perfectly now.

@v1naarth -- I was struggling with this one as well (on Garuda)! Finally got it to work by downloading the .zip file directly from:

https://www.synaptics.com/displaylink/downloads/ubuntu

and replacing the corrupt one from the package with this one. I read somewhere (probably this thread) that the script was causing the downloaded .zip to actually be the HTML of the terms and conditions from the download page, or something like that, which is the reason for the failed validation check. Replacing the .zip with a known good one (it should contain a .run program, I believe) should resolve that. There may be a more elegant approach? But this worked for my case.

Good luck!!

I`m getting the following error when trying to install both via pamac GUI and CLI:

displaylink-driver-5.3.1.34.zip ... FAILED ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check! I`m using Manjaro 21.0 - 5.10.27-1

I have not gotten this driver to install since I started trying hours ago. I am using 5.11.1-zen1-1-zen. The sha256sum check fails on displaylink-driver-5.3.1.34.zip.

The download link is broken. The following is the currently working link for me:

Could successfully install the driver on kernel 5.9.16-1. Steps to reproduce:

  • Install evdi:

pamac build evdi

dkms status should output something like: evdi, 1.7.2, 5.9.16-1-MANJARO, x86_64: installed

If you get ==> Unable to install module evdi/1.7.2 for kernel 5.9.16-1-MANJARO: Missing kernel headers. then you need to install the right kernel headers: sudo pacman -S linux-headers

  • Install displaylink driver:

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/displaylink.git cd displaylink/ makepkg -si

Is kernel 5.11 not supported? Using evdi 1.7.2-1.

modprobe evdi fails with "modprobe: FATAL: Module evdi not found in directory /lib/modules/5.11.1-arch1-1".

Couldnt find any information regarding supported kernel versions. Put in place an issue on the evdi GitHub.

@bnavigator I did, but I have no idea how to "provide a trace where this flag is set and why it is seen inside the package build". That's why I asked if there are any specific steps to do that.
