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. - 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. - 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. :-/ - ProblemType: Bug - DistroRelease: Ubuntu 19.10 + ProblemType: BugDistroRelease: Ubuntu 19.10 Package: mutter 3.34.1-1ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.3.0-23.25-generic 5.3.7 Uname: Linux 5.3.0-23-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu8.2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Wed Nov 20 14:08:21 2019 InstallationDate: Installed on 2019-09-12 (69 days ago) - InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 19.04 "Disco Dingo" - Release amd64 (20190416) - SourcePackage: mutter + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 19.04 "Disco Dingo" - Release amd64 (20190416)SourcePackage: mutter UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to eoan on 2019-09-20 (61 days ago) modified.conffile..etc.apport.crashdb.conf: [modified] mtime.conffile..etc.apport.crashdb.conf: 2019-10-23T16:51:18.143596
