Does DisplayLink work with Wayland or at least XWayland?
Also, any plans to upgrade it to 5.1+ version?

I'll look at this as soon as I can, most likely next weekend!

After trying an update, I reverted back to using the old setup:
xf86-video-intel-1_2.99.917+823+gd9bf46e4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz xf86-video-vesa-2.4.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz xorg-server-1.19.6+13+gd0d1a694f-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz xorg-server-common-1.19.6+13+gd0d1a694f-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz xorg-server-xwayland-1.19.6+13+gd0d1a694f-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz (with evdi-git)
When I tried the latest updates yesterday ( evdi 1.5.1-2 displaylink 4.4.24-1 linux 4.20.arch1-1 )
The screen worked -- kind of. The mouse had a weird ghosting artifact that was too distracting. I run a Cinnamon Desktop, so perhaps it could also be an interaction with that.
Do things work for anyone without any trouble (and with which desktop)? I could still be doing something wrong.

Looks like the latest package release from DisplayLink is v5.1 on 2019-02-19.

hi all,
why is this package suddenly flagged as "out of date" ? is there a newer alternative?

@darose
THANK YOU! I had the package evdi-git installed which apparently broke the video output of my displaylink setup.
Now it works just fine again :)

Working for me using:
- evdi 1.5.1-2

Also, is the git repository down?
micsnare commented on 2019-01-14 21:19 (UTC)
Anyone else experiencing this issue?

happy new year everyone! I just updated my arch. and it seems the kernel messed up displaylink again. because my systemd cannot start it anymore:
● displaylink.service - DisplayLink Manager Service Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/displaylink.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: activating (auto-restart) (Result: exit-code) since Sat 2019-01-12 09:33:06 CET; 4s ago Process: 1113 ExecStartPre=/sbin/modprobe evdi (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)
did this happen to anyone else? I've now removed it from my system because I thought I'd try a fresh install. But it seems I can no longer find it in the repository.
Any ideas?
