Hi,

I have this HP USB-C Dock but I don’t get the display ports working. The external display is not recognized by my Arch Notebook.

Do I need special drivers to use such docking stations?

(USB and Ethernet ports are working fine)

    Displaylink works on arch. Just install evdi and displaylink from the aur. Enable the service and also use the linux-lts kernel. EVDI is unfortunately an out of tree kernel module and lags behind the usually very recent official arch kernel.

      not forgetting linux-header and dkms ;)

      Works directly after rebooting the Notebook.

      Thanks!
