Thanks for creating the RPM for Fedora.

This works like a charm. Just a few notes on my side on how I did it:

Remove all old DisplayLink installs -> dnf remove displaylink*
Reboot the system with having the DisplayLink disconnected from USB.
Install the above available RPM from the terminal
[**] su (to get full root access)
[**] rpm -i displaylinkXXXX.rpm
Reboot the system with having the DisplayLink disconnected from USB.
Login to your user but make sure you select "Gnome Desktop" from the gear icon before login.
Connect the DisplayLink USB and after a few seconds it should show a picture on the external monitors (2x Dell 27" on XPS15 in my case)

Works like a charm so far....
