This work is mostly done by matt1606 and clementpoiret. Full credit goes to them, and I will be happy to let them own the package if they wish to.

For this package to work wlroots-displaylink-git will be required as well that I will push soon. This package was initially created by "Kshitij Joshi" and the patch by "kennylevinsen"

This package is unnecessary now since the patch was included into hyprland 0.40.1

Package does not compile with latest Arch Update.

@cristomc thanks for letting me know about that xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland conflict. I have fixed the issue in the latest wlroots-displaylink-git package

@cristomc I'm glad this works for you :)

Still trying to get this working with 39.1

Your HDMI thing is probably caused by the displaylink patch, which includes following:

const char *render_devices[] = {
    "/dev/dri/card0",
    "/dev/dri/card1",
    "/dev/dri/card2",
    "/dev/dri/card3",
    "/dev/dri/card4",
    "/dev/dri/card5",
        "/dev/dri/card6",
    "/dev/dri/card7",
    "/dev/dri/card8",
    "/dev/dri/card9",
    NULL
};

I do not code in C++ but I believe this is the part that enforces loading of the outputs from the listed cards. And with some black magic, somehow it is able to use both your GPUs? :D

The issue with xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland is that it has wlroots as a dependence. You can install it before installing wlroots-displaylink-git or by doing following yay -S xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland --assume-installed wlroots

The package is now compiled from git instead of tarball. It still fails to compile for v0.39.1

cristomc commented on 2024-05-02 14:14 (UTC)

@Sandwich thank you so much for update this package :)

I tested it and it works... it enabled my HDMI output on my laptop (even when Hyprland said in their Q/A that is not supported if I don't enable to work with the external GPU :S - REF: https://wiki.hyprland.org/FAQ/#my-external-monitor-is-blank--doesnt-render--receives-no-signal-laptop )

I'll test later how works with my dock (which has display link), but I wanted you to know that this side-effect "feature"

One thing I noticed is that I'm not able to instal xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland, but xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland-git is installed... will this work properly (even if you use the tarball version)? for now I don't see anything broken (but I didn't tested deeply)

Sandwich commented on 2024-05-02 08:33 (UTC)

This package is out of date since it uses the tarball release instead of git. I am unable to make the patch work with the latest Hyprland version, and it is probably not possible to remove -git from the package suffix

Patched wlroots package was uplaoded: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wlroots-displaylink-git
