Exclamation DisplayLink driver for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Does anyone know when a DisplayLink driver for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS will be available?
https://www.displaylink.com/downloads/ubuntu

I tried the old releases 5.1 and 5.2.
But they give an error.
Code:
Failed to build evdi/5.*
I also tried a third-party driver.
The installation was successful, but my ASUS external monitor was not detected.

In the meantime, does anyone have suggestions on how to work around this issue?

Thanks in advance!

I combined this config with the DisplayLink Ubuntu 5.3 driver, and my ASUS monitor works again!
