v1.3.52 is not working with AOC e1649wu - Ubuntu 16.04
The new version is not working. Support tool output is attached.
I uninstalled the old driver, rebooted, and installed the new version. Using a brand-new high quality USB cable and a powered USB hub. The AOC monitor shows alternating magenta/cyan bands. If I move the mouse across the screen it leaves traces of the pointer. Ubuntu 16.04 on an HP G72 laptop with an AOC e1649wu USB monitor as a secondary monitor. The older 1.1.68 driver release, works on this display except that the USB display will not come back on after suspend or after unplugging the USB display. Please advise. |

I don't see evdi or DisplayLinkManager running. I do see udl trying to access the device instead though - which is not right for this device (and you should probably blacklist udl in modprobe.conf). How did the installation end?

I had a problem with the e1659 not working on my HP laptop running 16.04 where the installation would fail, not building evdi and it wasn't immediately obvious. If you check evdi.ko, does it exist with a non-zero size?
$ ls -l /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/updates/dkms/evdi.ko |

I tried
Code:
ls -l /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/updates/dkms/evdi.ko Code:
sudo displaylink-installer uninstall after rebooting, I reinstalled with the following results: Code:
jr@jr-HP:~/Downloads/DisplayLink$ sudo ./displaylink-driver-1.3.52.run [sudo] password for jr: Verifying archive integrity... All good.

I read pev's post about editing the makefile. My evdi makefile is also attached if it helps. Thank you |

Installation log look fine, but again, no signs of evdi but udl is loaded. As I suggested - do blacklist udl so it never attempts to open the device. Then reboot and connect the device - evdi should load and DLM should then start as well. What does `systemctl status dlm.service` show?

Sorry - ignore my previous comments; I just realized this monitor is indeed a DL-1xx device and is driven by udl - 100% open-source module that your kernel contains. You don't need evdi nor DisplayLinkManager.

Please clarify on
Code:
You don't need evdi nor DisplayLinkManager. As I mentioned in my initial post, The older 1.1.68 release intermittently works with this display except that the USB display will not come back on after suspend or after unplugging the USB display unless I reboot. Can you please clarify for me the proper way to blacklist udl in modprobe.conf so that I do it properly. Also: Code:
jr@jr-HP:~$ systemctl status dlm.service ● dlm.service - DisplayLink Manager Service Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/dlm.service; static; vendor preset: enabl Active: inactive (dead) Last edited by rup; 02-28-2017 at 05:40 PM. |

E1659Fwu Black Screen on host P50
Didn't read install instructions and plugged the E1659Fwu into my Lenovo Thinkpad P50.
Fix: CD is included with product, if you don't have a CD drive on your machine, find one that does and copy the CD files to USB drive. - Boot to Safe Mode - Control Panel - Display Adapter - Disable Nvidia Quadro - Boot to normal mode and install the drivers. Everything is working for me. |
