Thank you djkajo!

I can confirm it worked for me on my dell XPS and Dell D6000 dock following the instructions that you followed as well.

I hope that solution works for everyone here!

I have tried the displaylink-debian but it has errors - HUNK failed
I am wondering whether it would work if i did a fresh install of 20.04
I am wondering if someone has instructions for completely removing the official DisplayLink driver before trying displaylink-debian
I have a Thinkpad with Intel Graphics

I have the same issue, Intel Thinkpad, worked under Eaon, did a fresh install of Focal, managed to get video working with help from here. Then Focal got an update yesterday (pretty sure I saw EVDI name in packages being updated) and now no video. Previous fixes not working

You could try a fresh Linux install, but as soon as it tries to update I suspect you'll hit the same issue.

I really wanted to try scaling too - why no word when new official drivers will be released? We shouldnt really need to compile them ourselves either.

Got the displaylink working on 20.04 @ amd and vega graphics and wayland. I had to install libdrm-dev to avoid the drm.h error while running install from the git clone. Now everythings fine other than the graphics and sound seem to be slightly cutting off and choppy. Anyways 100% better than without it.

Thx for that... works great... lets wait and see for the official new drivers..

New driver now available and installed - builds/installs just fine under 20.04 and works a treat with both X and Wayland. :-)
