Are you using the latest driver? Y
Are you using the latest EVDI version? Y
If you are using a DisplayLink device, have you checked 'troubleshooting' on DisplayLink's website? Y
Is this issue related to evdi/kernel?

Linux distribution and its version Arch Linux
Linux kernel version 6.10.3-arch1-2
Xorg version (if used)
Desktop environment in use Gnome

Hi,

I have just hit that issue after upgrading my system this morning (Arch Linux, Kernel 6.10.3) My diplayport monitors are not detected. The journal shows that the displaylink system is down and cannot find evdi. I have tried to update evdi using the git repo (AUR evdi-git package) without luck...

Thanks for your help!

Perhaps the solution in #481 works for you. You have to rebuild the evdi module with dkms.

Thanks @wvdakker. Yes, that fixed the issue.
