modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'evdi': Invalid argument
Hello,
first of all, thanks for providing a linux driver! It allowed me at least to start working with my XPS 13 in a multiscreen setup just about when I was thinking of returning it. I have an XPS 13 2015 and the D3100 USB3 docking station, running Ubuntu Gnome 15.04 with 3.19.0-28-generic. I could run with 2 external screens plus the onboard monitor, even though I had a relatively poor graphics performance with lots of tearing and a refresh lag. But it worked, kind of buggy, but it worked. I then tried to install the recently released (for 15.04) Intel Graphics driver for linux, in hopes I would get a performance at least equal to my 6 year old ThinkPad x220. Since then, however, I can not start the DLM service, even though I updated to the newest displaylink-driver-1.0.138. When I run the executable, I get: Code:
# ./displaylink-driver-1.0.138.run install Code:
# journalctl -xe Thanks a lot! |
Any luck? I'm getting the same errors.

Hi,
Thanks for the report. This looks like a symbol mismatch between modules: Code:
Sep 22 08:09:41 sawtoothxps kernel: evdi: Unknown symbol drm_crtc_helper_set_config (err -22) Thanks, Michal |
I am getting the same symbol errors trying to install driver on Ubuntu 15.10, with kernel 4.2. How to correct?
|
As I commented in another thread: can you try rebuilding modules registered with DKMS?
Code:
dkms autoinstall Thanks, Michal |
This is the same problem I'm having. The module builds fine, but insmod / modprobe fails to load it with these messages. This is on Ubuntu wily, kernel 4.2.0-34-generic, with latest intel drivers installed.

OK,
What are the Intel drivers that you're using exactly? Are they open sourced or binary? I don't see why this could happen if they were also compiled on your machine with the same version of drm... Unless I'm missing something. Cheers, Michal |

I might try installing via the source tarball instead of the Ubuntu installer to see if it changes anything. |
dkms autoinstall does not fix for me either
Verifying archive integrity... All good.

They are not meant to be enabled using systemctl. Possible reasons for having this kind of units are: 1) A unit may be statically enabled by being symlinked from another unit's .wants/ or .requires/ directory. 2) A unit's purpose may be to act as a helper for some other unit which has a requirement dependency on it. 3) A unit may be started when needed via activation (socket, path, timer, D-Bus, udev, scripted systemctl call, ...). Job for displaylink.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status displaylink.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details. The computer I'm trying to get it working on is a NUC - not sure if that matters. http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/...nuc6i5syk.html |
I might have the same problem
is there a workaround that doesn't break the intel installation and allows displaylink service to run? |
