Old method

On Ubuntu 20.04 you can skip to step 3. On Ubuntu 22.04 I had to do steps 2 and 3. On BigLinux (Manjaro) I had to do all 3 steps.

  1. install dkms
  • sudo pacman -S dkms
  1. install evdi
  1. install displaylink
./displaylink-driver-x.x.xx.run --noexec --keep
cd displaylink
chmod +x displaylink-installer.sh
sudo ./displaylink-install.sh
  • reboot

If needed to uninstall:
sudo displaylink-installer uninstall
