+** First time install**

+  - ''cd ~/displaylink''
+  - ''sudo ./displaylink-driver-5.6.1-59.184.run'' # driver version may have changed
+  - reboot
-Since I was making a fresh install, and wanted to get this working, here is a bit more for others to follow what you have put.
+** After kernel update **
-Download the Ubuntu drivers from here
+  - ''cd ~/displaylink/evdi''
-sudo dnf -y upgrade --refresh (to ensure everything is updated)
+  - ''sudo make''
-reboot to ensure using latest kernel
+  - ''sudo make install''
-sudo dnf -y install dkms libdrm-devel openssl (I rebooted again to ensure those took effect as it didn't seem to the first time)
-sudo openssl req -new -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout MOK.priv -outform DER -out \ MOK.der -nodes -days 36500 -subj "/CN=Displaylink/" (This is to sign the module for secure boot)
-sudo mkdir /usr/src/evdi-1.12.0/
-mkdir displaylink && cd displaylink
-Make sure to extract the downloaded file above into this directory. Make the file executable (I just did this in the GUI as it was easier for me at this point)
-sudo git clone https://github.com/DisplayLink/evdi
-cd evdi/module/
-sudo cp * /usr/src/evdi-1.12.0/
-sudo dkms build -m evdi -v 1.12.0 --force
-sudo dkms install -m evdi -v 1.12.0
-cd ~/displaylink
-sudo ./displaylink-driver-5.6.1-59.184.run or whatever version is available when you read this
-reboot
-After doing that, I was able to get it all working from a fresh install.
