Good news for xf86-video-intel users: I have no issues with blank or garbled screens anymore with the recent update (2019-11-16) to 1:2.99.917+895+gcb6bff95-1

confirming the same issue that wjhk23 had on +893 with garbled screens. Downgrading to +870 is working for me.

I've unflagged the package as out of date since the version it downloads is the most recent one. I no longer have a system that uses displaylink, thank god, so I cannot assist in trying to debug errors. If anyone wants to take over the package, please contact me :)

I can confirm the black screen for version 1:2.99.917+893 of xf86-video-intel. Instead of downgrading I switched to the modesetting driver with Page Flip disabled. Unfortunately now my lxdm, i3 desktop crashes randomly - but preferably under CPU stress. Does anyone know a fix/workaround for this?

not sure how you found that rrittste but I had the same problem (not black, but garbled, not +892 but +893). Downgrading from my pacman cache fixed it:

As rrittste said with latest xf86-video-intel and displink package no errors but all dock screen are black. I'll try the xf86-video-intel downgrade.

xf86-video-intel (1:2.99.917+892+gc6cb1b19-1 destroyed my setup. My Displays connected via DisplayLink were apeared black, but the mouse could be used. A downgrade to Version xf86-video-intel (1:2.99.917+870+g6f4972d5-1) was sccessful.

I can confirm pogojotz's comment. Build process worked flawlessly and the available driver is the current one.

I believe the out-of-date flag is invalid, since this is exactly the version, that is offered on displaylinks website for the several Ubuntus. Seems like the flagger just had trouble building the package.

At those who also have trouble building the package, please report in what environment you are doing it (what shell, any AUR helper you might be using, etc), since the trouble seems to be with the included script in the original driver package.

My build process works by the way. Tried it in qterminal with blank makepkg and the AUR helper yay.
