I stumbled about this also today. At the end the fix @apoc139 together with freshest kernel worked for my setup. I still wondering where the pkgver() was used in the PACKAGEBUILD.

I only get it to work if i go in to stable kernel (lts):

➜ uname -srm 
Linux 6.1.15-1-lts x86_64

Install the package evdi, and install displaylink otherwise (default kernel, evdi-git, evdi-git edited like @apoc139 sugested) it is giving me errors.

This is the kernel where it fails for me:

➜ uname -srm 
Linux 6.2.2-arch1-1 x86_64

Thanks @djallits!

For anyone wondering, the easiest method to patch it is to just grab the PKGBUILD from here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/evdi-git

and replace the original repo with listout's fork: https://github.com/listout/evdi

Also remove the pkgver() function from the PKGBUILD

Then run the usual makepkg -si command and you are golden.

Can confirm @jaminW report

➜ uname -srm 
Linux 6.2.1-arch1-1 x86_64

Edit: The following pull request will resolve the issue once merged. https://github.com/DisplayLink/evdi/pull/401

As of the most recent ARCH update on 2/22/2023, display no longer detects monitors on my computer.

5.6.1-3 works with AUR package evdi-git 1.12.0.r6.gbdc258b (5.10.167-1-MANJARO kernel) for me too.

Breaks with Linux 6.1.10-arch-1-1 x86_64

Using: displaylink 5.6.1-3 & evdi-git 1.12.0.r6.gbdc258b-1

Anyone else?

5.6.1-3 works for me with evdi 1.12.0.r6.gbdc258b-1 (Manjaro, KDE, Kernel 6.1.1)

Anyone on a machine using the i915 iGPU driver only + evdi-git and this package on KDE Plasma Wayland and not able to log into the Plasma Wayland session while using DisplayLink?
