Since MobilePixels products don't officially support linux, this is an unofficial, community driver to make them work on USB-A connections.
This has been tested on Trio Max 2023 version that shows in lsusb up as ID 0711:560b Magic Control Technology Corp. T6 USB Station
The initial .run source file was obtained by asking MCT for it, as they are the manufacturers of EVDI chip used in this product.
I don't know anything about C, but even I can tell that the code... isn't very mature. So this is a repo to keep track of improvements. PR's are welcome.
First off, get the latest EVDI driver:
https://www.reddit.com/r/pop_os/comments/18hbbf7/comment/kd5uqyw/
Clone this repo somewhere
git clone [email protected]:rfxDarth/mobilepixels-linux-driver.git
cd mobilepixels-linux-driver/evdi_t6_1
make
Then run using
sudo ./T6evdi
You can install it as a permanent service using
sudo make install
But beware that I have not tested it yet. My screen setup is already shaky with 3 GPU's in Xorg and I wouldn't trust this code not to brick my display manager. Therefore, there's no further documentation for now.
