@truongan: Regarding the downgrade operation:: did you only need to downgrade the xorg-server package, or were there additional packages that should be downgraded along with this?

truongan commented on 2017-01-27 13:05 (UTC)

@fethio: I have the same problem, a completely black screen. And I can confirm that downgrade to xorg-server 1.18 work for me. I don't remember exactly what version of Xorg cause this problem so I downgrade to the furthest working version I can remember. Perhaps someone can confirm it with a newer version.

Hi @PlusMinus, thanks for the reply. I've written a summary of this issue in the following forum post: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1686259#p1686259 @PlusMinus, Are you using xorg-server 1.19? This was upgraded in my last pacman -Syu

@fethio I'm using mesa 13 with Displaylink 1.2.65 and evdi 1.2.64 without any problems, and when I had Problems with displaylink, the monitor wouldn't even show the mouse, so I can imagine that the problem lies somewhere else.

I've been using displaylink with an external USB for the last two months. Downgraded the libmesa packages as suggested in the messages below. Displaylink service has been broken since last week (~Jan 15). The displaylink.service is active. evdi module is loaded. plugging in the extra monitor and running xrandr --setprovideroutputsource 1 0 the monitor becomes activated however it is totally black. I can trace my mouse motion on the extra monitor, nothing else is visible. EDIT; It turns out pacman decided to upgrade the lib32-mesa, lib32-mesa-libgl, mesa, mesa-libgl packages to 13.0.1. When I try to re-install the old ones, I get the following error error: mesa: missing required signature error: lib32-mesa: missing required signature error: lib32-mesa-libgl: missing required signature error: mesa-libgl: missing required signature I tried upgrading evdi package from 1.2.64 to 1.3.43, but no luck! same problem persists

I've tried to install this right now and it fails with the following output: ==> Starting package()... ./displaylink-driver-1.2.65.run: line 400: exec: -t: invalid option

I get a little screen freeze every ~~10 seconds. This needs to be related to displaylink. Coul you please check this?

@SmartSuka There is currently an issue with the new libmesa 13.x package. Downgrade to 12.x should fix this, see https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1666503#p1666503

SmartSuka commented on 2016-11-08 02:11 (UTC)

I'm also having problems with my displayLink configuration that I was not having previously. I've placed my relevant errors from dmesg into the same gist that project0 posted previously. https://gist.github.com/Project0/3ff20cd550c4238523f11e7a4ec28d53 If there is another form where I should post instead, please point me in the right direction. I'm still new here.

That is true, I already forgot that I switched back to X.
