DisplayLink doesn't work on Linux 21.10
Hi all
I upgraded to Ubuntu 21.10 DisplayLinks works with Linux kernel 5.8.0-38, but not with 5.13.0-20. If I try modprobe evdi, I get this answer sudo modprobe evdiAdditional information Linux 5.13.0-20-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 15 14:21:35 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux I attached log file in zip format. Does anyone tell me what happens? Thanks in advance!! |

Works fine for me on Ubuntu 21.10 and using the latest driver from the download page. Did you try complete removal and fresh installation?
Code:
lsmod | grep evdi evdi 61440 5 drm_kms_helper 262144 2 evdi,i915 syscopyarea 16384 2 drm_kms_helper,evdi sysfillrect 16384 2 drm_kms_helper,evdi sysimgblt 16384 2 drm_kms_helper,evdi drm 561152 20 drm_kms_helper,evdi,i915 Linux 5.13.0-20-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 15 14:21:35 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux |

Update from Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS kernel 5.4.0-91 to kernel 5.4.0-94
Recently I updated Ubuntu 20.04 LTS to kernel 5.4.0-94 and my displaylink enabled DELL D6000 dock stopped functioning (works fine under windows so no hardware failure).
When I start Ubuntu 20.04 LTS under kernel 5.4.0-91 everything works fine. I informed both DELL and Displaylink, but this will probably get lost in their organisation since I had to contact sales and press relations respectively. Tested both Release: 5.5 Beta | Dec 22, 2021 Release: 5.4.1 | Sep 6, 2021 https://www.synaptics.com/products/d...wnloads/ubuntu Which are the latest drivers attow. If someone managed to update the drivers or contact Synaptic to update their drivers please let me know. |
