@truongan:: I didn't notice that evdi 1.2.64-1->1.2.64-3 (I was trying with the 1.3 version to compile against kernel 4.9.X) I am using the latest stable arch kernel, xorg-server 1.19. After switching to evdi 1.2.64-3, I had to reinstall xf86-video-intel, which changed my laptop monitor from modesetting to Intel. I have a working displaylink !!! :) thanks for the help...

@truongan: I had to remove a number of packages during xorg-server downgrade (1.19->1.18). removed packages: xf86-input-[evdev,keyboard,mouse,vmmouse,void], and xf86-video-[dummy,fbdev,intel,vesa,vmware] Displaylink still does not work. while I get the following lines in the dmesg when the usb monitor is plugged in: [ 898.424014] usb 4-1: new SuperSpeed USB device number 3 using xhci_hcd [ 900.995886] evdi: [D] add_store:195 Increasing device count to 2 [ 900.996543] evdi: [D] evdi_crtc_init:312 drm_crtc_init: 0 [ 900.996880] evdi: [W] evdi_painter_crtc_state_notify:363 Painter does not exist!

@fethio: You will have to download xorg-server and xf86-input-libinput because their PKGBUILD depend on each other. Just those 2 packages are enough. You can even keep xorg-server-common at newer version.

@truongan: Regarding the downgrade operation:: did you only need to downgrade the xorg-server package, or were there additional packages that should be downgraded along with this?

truongan commented on 2017-01-27 13:05 (UTC)

@fethio: I have the same problem, a completely black screen. And I can confirm that downgrade to xorg-server 1.18 work for me. I don't remember exactly what version of Xorg cause this problem so I downgrade to the furthest working version I can remember. Perhaps someone can confirm it with a newer version.

Hi @PlusMinus, thanks for the reply. I've written a summary of this issue in the following forum post: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1686259#p1686259 @PlusMinus, Are you using xorg-server 1.19? This was upgraded in my last pacman -Syu

@fethio I'm using mesa 13 with Displaylink 1.2.65 and evdi 1.2.64 without any problems, and when I had Problems with displaylink, the monitor wouldn't even show the mouse, so I can imagine that the problem lies somewhere else.

I've been using displaylink with an external USB for the last two months. Downgraded the libmesa packages as suggested in the messages below. Displaylink service has been broken since last week (~Jan 15). The displaylink.service is active. evdi module is loaded. plugging in the extra monitor and running xrandr --setprovideroutputsource 1 0 the monitor becomes activated however it is totally black. I can trace my mouse motion on the extra monitor, nothing else is visible. EDIT; It turns out pacman decided to upgrade the lib32-mesa, lib32-mesa-libgl, mesa, mesa-libgl packages to 13.0.1. When I try to re-install the old ones, I get the following error error: mesa: missing required signature error: lib32-mesa: missing required signature error: lib32-mesa-libgl: missing required signature error: mesa-libgl: missing required signature I tried upgrading evdi package from 1.2.64 to 1.3.43, but no luck! same problem persists

I've tried to install this right now and it fails with the following output: ==> Starting package()... ./displaylink-driver-1.2.65.run: line 400: exec: -t: invalid option

I get a little screen freeze every ~~10 seconds. This needs to be related to displaylink. Coul you please check this?
