Hello,
I'm hoping to get some help with my issues.
I am using a Dell USB dock that has DisplayLink, it has been working fine for about a month.
I had the driver installed via APT package.
Yesterday I did a `apt update && apt upgrade` and after restarting, the monitor connected to the dock has no more display.
Code:
sudo apt install displaylink-driver
[sudo] password for sergeip:

The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required:
libevdi1
Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove it.
The following additional packages will be installed:
evdi
Suggested packages:
xmlstarlet
The following NEW packages will be installed
displaylink-driver evdi
0 to upgrade, 2 to newly install, 0 to remove and 4 not to upgrade.
Need to get 0 B/6,736 kB of archives.
After this operation, 0 B of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

If I try install the driver again from APT, I get an error relating to evdi.
I tried to install from the downloaded package and was able to get that to work (after running an uninstall on a remaining evdi)
I still get no output on my monitor.
Any suggestions?
