Are you using the latest driver? --> Yes
Are you using the latest EVDI version? --> Yes 1.10.0
If you are using a DisplayLink device, have you checked 'troubleshooting' on DisplayLink's website?
Is this issue related to evdi/kernel? --> Probably evdi doesn't support kernel 5.15.25-1-lts yet?
Linux distribution and its version: Arch Linux
Linux kernel version : 5.15.25-1-lts
Xorg version (if used): X.Org X Server 1.21.1.3
Desktop environment in use: XFCE4

Screenshot: sudo make

sudo make clean install

sudo make install

it's not make install the proper command to install evdi is meant to be: make && sudo make install_dkms and sudo make uninstall_dkms to uninstall

Sorry, I failed to mention that you should be in the module directory

I have just upgraded Ubuntu from 20.04 to 22.04 which upgrades the kernel to 5.15.0-25-generic and had to execute the same command. My previous kernel was 5.13 and evdi was already installed. I couldn't find this command in any of the README.md or /docs/*.md. The Makefile doesn't have a help section neither.

Can someone add it to the README.md or create a new file in /docs? Appreciated

git clone https://github.com/DisplayLink/evdi.git
cd evdi
make
cd module
sudo make install install_dkms
