If you are using a DisplayLink device, have you checked 'troubleshooting'
on DisplayLink's website? Yes
Is this issue related to evdi/kernel? EVDI
Linux distribution and its version (Ubuntu 19.04)
Linux kernel version v4.15
Xorg version (if used)
Desktop environment in use (Default Ubnuntu)
Description:
I am experiencing an issue with the latest EVDI version on Ubuntu 19.04 where I am unable to use more than 4 DisplayLink monitors in a total of 6 Monitors. The same configuration works correctly on Windows OS, indicating that there are no connection issues with the monitors.
Environment:
Ubuntu 19.04
EVDI (latest version)
3 DisplayLink DL-6950 devices (each with dual HDMI ports)
Total of 6 DisplayLink monitors and 2 hardware displays (8 monitors in total)
Steps to reproduce:
Connect 6 DisplayLink monitors and 2 hardware displays to the system.
Install the latest EVDI version on Ubuntu 19.04.
Modify /etc/modprobe.d/evdi.conf to have options evdi initial_device_count=6 (tried increasing this value up to 16).
Regenerate Initramfs.
Set the most verbose logs.
Expected behavior:
All 6 DisplayLink monitors and 2 hardware displays should work simultaneously.
Actual behavior:
Only 4 out of 6 DisplayLink monitors work alongside the 2 hardware (gpu) displays.
Additional information:
I did not observe any error messages related to the EVDI module in the verbose logs, specifically, no messages from "EVDI_ERROR("Evdi device add failed. Too many devices.\n");".
I tried manually adding devices by running "echo {1...6} > /sys/devices/evdi/add", but this did not resolve the issue.
Please let me know if there are any workarounds, patches, or updates that can resolve this issue. Thank you.

The latest 0.13.1 evdi kernel module with libevdi-0.13.1 does not detect my monitors with DisplayLink 5.6.1-59.184 and not logging anything... (enabled log level as kernel parameter)
The previous evdi 0.12.0 driver working fine and logging too! (but cannot build for 6.2.9 kernel)
