Custom RPM created for Fedora and others

The evdi module included in this package does not support 4.7.x or greater series kernels. You will have to build evdi and libevdi from source, or wait for an updated package.

Thanks! After installing libdrm-devel I could compile the latest code which I downloaded from the GIT repository. I copied the module to the /lib/modules/kernel/misc directory and ran depmod. Finally I reinstalled the displaylink rpm.

Will test the result tomorrow at work!
