Somehow after this update my screen is not recognized automatically. I had to load the evdi module in /etc/modules-load.d/evdi.conf

Yes, you need the headers for the kernel, which you build against. For the LTS kernel a manually updated evdi to the released version 1.9.0 would also work, I guess.

All of this is out of scope for the displaylink package. Please comment at evdi and evdi-git to get this sorted out.

@deimosfr I installed evdi-git manually and changed the linux-headers line to linux-lts-headers.

Thanks for the update @bnavigator.

Quick question, when trying to update, it requires linux-headers-5.11.11.arch1-1 however, I'm using the LTS kernel. Anything, I'm not sure it's going to work, any inputs on this?

Thanks

I updated the PKGBUILD to have the new synaptics download link

@jtech32 Thanks man! The build passed, working perfectly now.

@v1naarth -- I was struggling with this one as well (on Garuda)! Finally got it to work by downloading the .zip file directly from:

https://www.synaptics.com/displaylink/downloads/ubuntu

and replacing the corrupt one from the package with this one. I read somewhere (probably this thread) that the script was causing the downloaded .zip to actually be the HTML of the terms and conditions from the download page, or something like that, which is the reason for the failed validation check. Replacing the .zip with a known good one (it should contain a .run program, I believe) should resolve that. There may be a more elegant approach? But this worked for my case.

Good luck!!

I`m getting the following error when trying to install both via pamac GUI and CLI:

displaylink-driver-5.3.1.34.zip ... FAILED ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check! I`m using Manjaro 21.0 - 5.10.27-1
