Someone gets working evdi with Kernel =>5.18?

If, for some reason, you seem to be having issues with dkms installing evdi, check if you are using the correct linux-headers (or, in my case, linux-lts-headers).

Took me a while to put two and two together. I did not require the -git version nor the displaylink-beta packages to get a docking station working.

@prakash2033 Yeah, About a month ago I used arch lts for a week or so when the latest broke some driver for my laptop and it was fine.

@aaronrancsik Will it work fine if i'm on arch linux lts kernel 5.15.25-1 ??

@prakash2033 I really do not suggest to downgrade your kernel..

Only latest Ubuntu LTS 's kernel versions are supported officially.

However evdi-git AUR package is works "mostly fine" with the latest kernel.

I get below error while installing evdi

ERROR: Missing 5.16.11-arch1-1 kernel modules tree for module evdi/1.10.0

Is it because i'm on higher kerner version than what is supported by evdi. Do I need to downgrade my kernel version to make it work? Which lts kernel version is supported by evdi 1.10.0?

@deimosfr I have the same error :-(

1.10 is intended for using with displaylink 5.5, which is still in beta. So right now this package is out of sync with its displaylink counterpart. https://github.com/DisplayLink/evdi/issues/338
