Ubuntu 22.04.2
Using a Teolant 11 in 1 usb docking station to display on two monitors.
I tried deleting the 20-displaylink.conf and uninstalling then reinstalling it, but my Providers is zero.
Can I get some help with this issue?

Can you try replacing your current config with this:

Section "OutputClass"
    Identifier  "DisplayLink"
    MatchDriver "evdi"
    Driver      "modesetting"
    Option      "AccelMethod" "none"
EndSection

I replaced it then uninstalled, but it said I didn't have the .patch file. Then I reinstalled and the config didn't appear, so I pulled the repo again and uninstalled, and now it can't find the /opt/displaylink/displaylink-installer.sh. Now there is no 20-displaylink.conf because it is installing improperly.

Okay I realized after commenting that I have to reboot after uninstall, so I did that and the install worked!
I then changed the 20-displaylink.conf to what you recommended. After plugging it in one of the hdmi ports on the device started working, but the other one doesn't (strange). I still don't have any providers though.
