Upstream says reverting the commit 88ef73df576aacdfff6597616a77b88f42eca4c7 should not be needed in 1.14.8.

Also, please rename it to evdi-dkms-git

For anyone having issues compiling on kernel 6.13+ The latest commit is faulty, so you will need to revert it in the PKGBUILD.

If using an AUR helper make sure the cache is cleared, before reinstalling with the edited PKGBUILD. Ex:

paru -Scc
paru -S evdi-git --fm code

Replace the hash in the quotes on line 50 with this hash instead: fb79dca31768bf6c16a8a787fdd67b245e4611f4

Enjoy!

Not working for me. The module compiles without error and is loaded, but my displays remains black. (Worked before, Thinkpad X1 Carbon G6)
