Discussion about DisplayLink support in Slackware

Greetings, fellow Slackers, I am running Slackware64-current with Plasma5. Has anyone encountered issues with xorg-server 1.20.0 while running DisplayLink? I have the same issues as listed here: https://support.displaylink.com/knowledgebase/articles/1181623-displaylink-ubuntu-driver-after-recent-x-upgrades

I had to downgrade to xorg-server-1.19.6 with x-org-server-xephyr, xorg-server-xnext and xorg-server-xvfb also on the same version

I had the same issues with Slackware64-current with KDE 4, by the way

Regards,

F. Bobbio C. (a.k.a. Akileo)
