Thank you homelessuser, you are correct. Could not get x to work after upgrading.

Downgrading the following xorg-server packages resolved the issue: pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/xorg-server-1.20.8-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst /var/cache/pacman/pkg/xorg-server-common-1.20.8-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst /var/cache/pacman/pkg/xorg-server-xvfb-1.20.8-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

Cannot confirm. Works fine here with 1.20.9-1.

The screens attached to my docking station stopped working on Kernel 5.7.9

Uninstalling evdi and installing evdi-git as suggested by @homelessuser fixed the problem for me.

5.8 Kernel + evdi 1.8 + Displaylink didn't seem to work 5.8 Kernel + evdi-git 1.7 + Displaylink fixed it

sudo pacman -Rns evdi displaylink
yay evdi-git
yay displaylink
sudo modprobe udl
reboot

EDIT: Also read the comment a above this one for the fix for xorg 1.20.9 latest

Anyone else having problems today?

DVI-I-2-2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

DVI-I-1-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

5.8 kernel didn't break it but I think today's graphical updates did.

https://forum.manjaro.org/t/displaylink-5-3-1/155611 I got the same issue with kernel 5.6, evdi 1.7.0, displaylink 5.3.1.34-2 from AUR I did :

remove displaylink 5.3.1.34-2 (from packagemanager manjaro)

remove evdi 1.7.0

create /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-evdidevice.conf with :

Section "OutputClass"
Identifier "DisplayLink"
MatchDriver "evdi"
Driver "modesetting"
Option "AccelMethod" "none"
EndSection

reboot to kernel 5.4 from splash screen

install evdi-git 1.7.0 from package manager

mkdir ~/AUR; cd ~/AUR

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/displaylink.git; cd displaylink

makepkg -fLsi

reboot with screen connected in USB

It is working for me now

If you get the permission denied on /root/.cache you are probably using pamac. Try yay or another method to install and it works fine.
