Hi Guys, regarding "gifts" patch, is there a guide to applying the patch listed. I started to follow the guide in Arch on patching packages but its beyond my skill set. Failing that I just wait for package to be updated.

Works for me too @gifts. Thank you :)

There is a lot of movement with the upstream issue tracker. I will update the package once the changes are accepted upstream. Please do not mark the package out of date unless there is a new release by Displaylink.

Looks like this is the upstream bug:

Won't build against kernel 5.5.1

Anyone else got the problem of a permanently running fan (X1 Carbon 6th gen) after updating this package to the recent version (1.6.4-2)?

I did 'fork' this package to a evdi-4.19 one which is the same without the 5.4 patch. Not an ideal solution, but may help. (at least helps me :) )

I hope I'll delete it soon
