Hi there,
after upgrading from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04 my previous perfectly working display link is broken. Also many different tries to fix it failed. So going back to community and asking for a new approach.
Having a HP 840 G3 and G4 (on both same issue)
Tried also different DisplayLink USB Docks with same result
Only stable working Dock is the original HP Dock via Dock-Port of Laptop, but uses other connection path.
Here my system
Code:
uname -a
Linux 5.4.0-96-generic #109-Ubuntu SMP
Code:
sudo displaylink-installer --help
DisplayLink Linux Software 5.4.1-55.174 install script called: --help
Distribution discovered: Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
Installs DisplayLink Linux Software, version 5.4.1-55.174.
I have also installed the latest evdi via documented path here

my running display manager (wayland I had to drop, too many things did not work well, starting from simply screenshot tools, over desktop video recordings and so on)
Code:
cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager
