The new driver release does not fix my issue.

I'm not going to change OSes for a stupid monitor. I shouldn't *have* to.

As far as I can see, you appear to be the only DisplayLink guy helping out in the
Linux subforum. It sucks, so I understand to a point. Still though:

1) I bought these monitors close to 2 months ago and haven't been able to use them.
2) I have done everything I can reasonably do to fix the problem from my end WRT code.
I looked through and worked out as much as I can of EVDI.
3) But the problem is in the proprietary part. So I can't fix it.
4) This could have been done and over with nearly 2 months ago if I could have fixed it
myself.
5) Now I have to wait on DisplayLink to fix the issue.
6) Support has been abysmal because they only have one freaking developer on the
Linux subforum.

None of that is necessarily /your/ fault; rather, DisplayLink as a whole. I'm not
attempting to single out and flame you in particular. I'm just done dealing with this issue.

This whole experience has been so bad that even *if* I'm able to get my monitors to
work, I'm never buying anything with DisplayLink inside again.

Some folks are successful on Fedora. Did you try the RPM they prepared based on the latest release?

I still can't see what specific difference you have in your setup making it not compatible. You said that it works with Ubuntu - and we don't officially support any other distro, despite trying to assist in porting where we can. Sorry.

Cheers,
Michal

I tried the new 10/11 release a few days ago. Exact same thing still.
