Hi Only the beta driver work and you need a new patch as well for the beta driver I attach my patch here for the beta driver

displaylink-installer.zip

Next issue I did have was I did create a bit ugly hack in the debian installer script as well file:///home/magnus/git/displaylink-debian/displaylink-debian.zip remove the beta driver detactions and modify follow line at 437 to chmod +x $driver_dir/displaylink-driver-.run ./$driver_dir/displaylink-driver-.run --keep --noexec mv displaylink-driver-*/ $driver_dir/displaylink-driver-${version}

Next issue I got i need the driver be sign so i wrote debian sign script for the driver for kernel 5.15 I should update so it work for all kernel

see the comment in the script i took thuse comment from debian wiki how to sign you own module, if you already create you own sign key already or you have install virtualbox do not create sign key and enroll it only run the mdoule sign part. debian.zip

Maybe I will commit it to a fork all change I done so people can get it.

please do not compain about the script it is very fast writen it should have more check to make it safe. so it does not overwrite virtualbox private sign key or other thrid party module sign. you ahould only have one own private sign key for modules and kernel.
