Adjust to kernel 5.9 #227

devel branch doesn't work on my hardware, but your fix also fixes the 1.7.0 tag, which is what need here https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/displaylink/ Edit: not my hardware, see #216 (comment) |
is that a known issue on the devel branch & your HW? |
Not just me, everyone on Arch Linux is using EVDI 1.7.0, apparently we're waiting for DisplayLink? https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/displaylink/ EVDI for displaylink in the AUR is set to 1.7.0 (which is the master branch here for anyone reading this) so that's why I pushed your changes there too, which built perfectly. |
#225 (comment) too |
Oh ok, I thought, there may be a code problem in the devels branch causing the HW to not work. |
Hi guys, when I connect displaylink, I can switch to the screen, whitout problem, but when restarting lightdm, no more screen, and huge crash in the journalctl. I tried connecting usb before boot, same problem. I tried switching back to the laptop screen before restarting lightdm, same problem. My kernel version is: 5.8.14-arch1-1 OS: Arch linux |
Please open a new issue. Not posting your question in multiple kernel 5.9 threads. |
@displaylink-dkurek Is there an ETA on getting this PR merged and released? Linux 5.9 was just released into the Core repo of Arch Linux, which means all Arch Linux users will need this patch. I can confirm that this patch works on my 5.9 system (I use the patched evdi AUR package by @bnavigator). |
Yup but the patch comes from #228 😂 |
Greetings @displaylink-dkurek when do you think this will this be getting merged? Can we help? @abucodonosor is a professor! |
Sorry it took so long :) |
Fantastic! Will you backport it for 1.7 or 1.7.1? Shall I close #228? |
Thanks for pinging me. |
Found the thread: Seems there is missing commit on github/torvalds/linux. We still have 4 days |
My shot at a fix: #230 |
Please note I do not have any HW to test these changes.
