Problem on new Ubuntu 22.04

I had the same issue after upgrading a Ubuntu to from 16.04 to 20.04 and then 22.04 in the same afternoon. When I tried the manual evdi-dkms install I noted some info about missing kernel headers in the log which got me to re-installing the headers.

After rebooting the standard DisplayLink install worked! I'm happily using the drivers with dual monitors on the latest Ubuntu 22.04 on Wayland (Nvidia open source drivers).

Steps:
1. Re-install headers

Code:

sudo apt install --reinstall linux-headers-$(uname -r)

2. Reboot

Code:

sudo shutdown -r now
