@vS0uz4 Older kernels should work alright. If you use mesa, pin it and update manually if you use something else I can't tell. Personally i switched from my Displaylink dock to a thunderbolt dock and I don't regret it a bit. Really, it depends on your use case, but IMHO the two viable options are: Get a travel adapter or get a thundebolt dock. Most displalink docks cover the middle ground and the d3100 I had did it poorly, mainly because of this driver.

@Quartie

I am intending to buy a Dock Station for use with DisplayLink, I also use Manjaro Linux (see 18.0.4 - Illyria) a distribution based on Arch Linux, my kernel version is (4.14.118-1-MANJARO) will I have compatibility issues?

displaylink 5.1.26-1 evdi 1.6.0-1 linux 5.0.2.arch1-1

I confirm it is not working for kernel 5.0.1

@PlusMinus USB, Ethernet & Sound work on Kernel 5.

All video non-functional as EVDI dependancy is broken. Cannot update to evdi-git or evdi-pre-release as it fails to build.

Journal error: modprobe[]: modprobe: FATAL: Module evdi not found in directory /lib/modules/5.0.0-arch1-1-ARCH

Rebooting changes nothing.

hey @noraj

hmm i already had pageflip set to false, but somehow video-output is still not working for me properly. ethernet/audio/usb however is working correctly... it's always the video-output that's causing problems :(

This config doesn't work for me, right now.

  • linux 4.20.11
  • evdi 1.6.0
  • displaylink 5.1.26

Using USB 3.0 DL-6xxx, DL-5xxx, DL-41xx, DL-3xxx Devices and Workaround 2: Temporarily disable PageFlip for modesetting

@darose Actually v4 doesn't work anymore with Linux kernel 4.20.11 for me so I guess I must upgrade to v5.
