As of the most recent ARCH update on 2/22/2023, display no longer detects monitors on my computer.

5.6.1-3 works with AUR package evdi-git 1.12.0.r6.gbdc258b (5.10.167-1-MANJARO kernel) for me too.

Breaks with Linux 6.1.10-arch-1-1 x86_64

Using: displaylink 5.6.1-3 & evdi-git 1.12.0.r6.gbdc258b-1

Anyone else?

Anyone on a machine using the i915 iGPU driver only + evdi-git and this package on KDE Plasma Wayland and not able to log into the Plasma Wayland session while using DisplayLink?

@djallits Linux 6.0.1-arch1-1 x86_64 breaking this is actually a problem with evdi. Fix is mainlined in evdi-git. See https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/evdi#comment-884724 for fix.

For google:

DisplayLink 5.6.1-3 breaks on Linux 6.0.1-arch1-1 x86_64. I am digging into the issue now, but I just wanted to warn anyone else.

The displaylink patch works and my extra monitors work better than before. I no longer has the cursor jitteriness after upgrading to:

evdi: aur/evdi displaylink: direc85's github for displaylink kernel: 5.19.7-arch1-1

evdi/displaylink doesn't work with LTS kernel however.
