I installed the Linux driver to use the Dell docking station D3100 a few weeks ago and everything was working fine,... until my last update of the OS yesterday. I am running ubuntu 14.04 on a Dell Latitude E5250. This morning, the external monitor connected to the docking station is not working anymore. Actually, the docking station itself is not recognised.

dmesg now gives:
[ 442.320440] evdi: module verification failed: signature and/or required key missing - tainting kernel
[ 442.321117] [ ] evdi_init Initialising logging on level 5

The docking system is not found by lsusb:

I would appreciate your help.
Thanks!



I attach the log file from /var/log/displaylink/

Hello Julz,

Have you tried to reinstall DisplyLink software? In particular the following sequence does this:

sudo ./displaylink-driver-1.0.138.run uninstall
reboot
sudo ./displaylink-driver-1.0.138.run

Regards,
Szymon

Hello.
Yes, I tried that.
To no avail.
The messages in dmesg and lsusb remain the same.

Best regards,
Julz.

Okay. Could you please gather logs from your system follwing this article:

and upload the zip file to this thread so I can pass the issue to engineering for analysis?

Thanks,
