Hi everyone! I have a laptop with one HDMI output and a USB-C port. I want to connect a second monitor with the USB-C/DisplayPort (i have already a monitor connected in the HDMI port thats works!). I want to use a USB-C to HDMI adapter.
The computer simply doesn’t recognize the monitor. The screen stay black all time when its connected with the adapter. It’s valid to say that in Windows10 this connection works.
I’m using the video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-440xx-prime as a graphics driver.

I’ve already tried to install DisplayLink driver, but following the wiki steps I receive an error:

Thanks for all! I really don’t know what to do anymore
Just an update. Now my displaylinks apparently works, but x-randr doesn’t shows up the modesetting driver and my monitor still doesn’t receive any signal:
But in the displaylink wiki, it has to appear both drivers: MODESETTING and INTEL. I don’t know how to procceed anymore.

nov 30 12:02:45 pedro systemd[1]: Started DisplayLink Manager Service.
It’s important to say that I updated the nvidia prime drivers to video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-455xx-prime, and I try to do this with the 3 methods provided by Optimus-Manager(Intel / Nvidia / Hybrid).
Can somebody help me please?
I also managed to install displaylink from AUR, but when I try to run it with sudo systemctl start displaylink.service I get :
Job for displaylink.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status displaylink.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
systemctl status displaylink.service` gives me:

While journalctl -xe gives me:

I used this combination on my Intel NUC, it worked without displaylink.service. But i had to make changes into BIOS to activate this second DP monitor as video output, eg. Thunderbold Video was not activated for USB-C port. After that it worked. Only one small changes was needed to get KDE/xrandr better working. I created
