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.

@m3Lith: just read the pinned comment!

@bnavigator: not sure how useful that is, but it's all I can see when updating in Manjaro:

[...]

If you could tell me if there's anything specific I can do to get more info, I'd gladly include more.

Am a Manjaro user. I was able to install by using pamac in the command line with no issues. I finally got my extended display back, woo hoo!

Nothing sets evdi-git as dependency. AUR just displays it as possible provider for evdi (if you use a version below 1.8.0)

evdi-git is now moved to 1.8.0 which does not build for kernel 5.10 and breaks displaylink.

Suggest setting evdi package as dependency.

Instead of:

evdi<1.8.0 (evdi-git)
evdi>=1.7.0 (evdi-git)

Use:

evdi<1.8.0 (evdi)
evdi>=1.7.0 (evdi)

@DavidH:I'm getting the same error. What works:

1) install edvi 1.7.2-1 and check that it is bound to your active kernel correctly (i.e. sudo modprobe evdi)

2) install displaylink 5.3.1.34-4 with

yay displaylink (strange, but this avoids the "Unknown option -title" error)

3) Enable and start the displaylink service:

sudo systemctl enable displaylink.service

sudo systemctl start displaylink.service

This should switch to your external screen immediately.

@DavidH: I'm getting pretty much the same error (Unknown option -title) on Manjaro with Xfce. However, I've used it before, so I'm stuck on v5.3.1.34-2 (which works), but not sure if it's possible for you to install an older version.
