Apologies, it appears that the udev rules weren't properly updated to 5.8. 😅 I ran systemctl enable displaylink, which isn't something you're meant to do, and I missed udev not working. The service should now turn itself on/off automatically when plugging in the device.

@fdo10 Have you tried using the evdi package? evdi-compat-git doesn't work for me at all with displaylink-5.8.
Also, a kernel API change in 6.6 breaks evdi as well. I'll pin @danielkrajnik's comment as downgrading fixes things.

I confirm. It's currently not working with: kernel 6-1.62-1-lts; displaylink-5.8-0; evdi-compat-git-1.14.03-1

upgrade broke displaylink for me: journalctl -u displaylink.service -ef:
modprobe: FATAL: Module evdi not found in directory /lib/modules/6.6.1-arch1-1
thanks @nonickknown - after running sudo downgrade linux linux-headers to 6.5.9-arch2-1 I got it to work again.
I've had to also downgrade displaylink to 5.7 paru -U .cache/paru/clone/displaylink/displaylink-5.7-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst.

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.
Segaja commented on 2023-11-09 08:59 (UTC)
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This package is out of date, because newest displaylink version is 5.8 | Aug 9, 2023 according to upstream URL.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.
