Linux 5.9 and Display Link

RobstaRobotard · 01-04-2021, 01:23 AM

I've put together a build script that I use already for my Ubuntu setup... Working for 5.9.16, and just installing 5.10.4 to test that too... But the results from above already speak for themselves... (Thank you bro

)

Hopefully this can simplify the process...

It downloads the current DisplayLink, then updates the EVDI folder from the above instructions...

https://github.com/robotard/setup-ub...kdownloader.sh

[AS PER BELOW - I've updated my script to allow for newer DisplayLink updated to not be automatically be patched]

##IMPORTANT##
You may also need to run this to start the service after reboot:

sudo systemctl start displaylink-driver.service

Let me know if it helps
