Display Link on Work Computer (Please Help!)

Hello Everyone,

I have a work computer that is running gentoo with 6.1.41 kernel.

I've successfully installed:

x11-drivers/displaylink-driver-5.6.1
x11-drivers/evdi-1.13.1

All the USB peripherals (Keyboard, mouse, mic, cam) work perfectly however, my computer is unable to successfully start DisplayLink:

PHP Code:


			
Kernel: 6.1.41

PHP Code:


			
 2.365907] usb 3-2.2: Product: ThinkPad Hybrid USB-C with USB-A Dock

PHP Code:


			
xrandr --listproviders

Provider 0: id: 0x278 cap: 0x1, Source Output crtcs: 0 outputs: 0 associated providers: 1 name:NVIDIA-0

PHP Code:

        CPU: 2.871s
     CGroup: /system.slice/dlm.service
             `-4178 /opt/displaylink/DisplayLinkManager

I have spent 2 weeks trying to get the DisplayLink working with my external monitors however not able to do so. Can someone please help me?
