Title:
display (whole computer?) hangs when I attempt to use DisplayLink with
Wayland
Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Status in mutter source package in Eoan:
New
Bug description:
[ Impact ]
I am using the DisplayLink driver for Ubuntu provided at
https://www.displaylink.com/downloads/ubuntu
DisplayLink is working under Xorg, but when I try to use it under
Wayland my whole display hangs and I can't even switch to a different
VT with Ctrl-Alt-F3 so I think maybe the whole computer is hung? Not
certain.
[ Test case ]
- Install DisplayLink drivers
- Start GNOME Shell in wayland mode
- Connect to a display-link dock
- Expect the shell to work properly and be visible in the external device
[ Regression potential ]
Wayland session won't work even for standard drm devices
----
I am using the DisplayLink driver for Ubuntu provided at
https://www.displaylink.com/downloads/ubuntu, which I think is the
only way to get DisplayLink fully working under Ubuntu? That is,
DisplayLink didn't work when I installed the evdi-dkms and libevdi0
Ubuntu packages, and I couldn't find any other packages that might be
relevant (did I miss something?) so as far as I can tell the only way
to get everything that's needed is from displaylink.com.
I'm reporting this issue while logged in under Xorg because I can't
report it when logged in with my DisplayLink monitors plugged in under
Wayland, for obvious reasons. :-/
