Actually the diskplaylink package apparently works with evdi up to version

Yes, that is the set of errors one gets when compiling the evdi 1.8.0 module 
with the current F32 and F33 kernels.

You'll need someone with a "bit" more experience with gcc to patch the source 
to get it to compile with more
recent kernels.

From what I am understanding (yeah I know.. don't laugh ;-) ) it is trying to 
compile v1.7.2 and the package is for Fedora 33. So it should all work 
seamlessly, no?


Well, when I went to the link provided by Jonathan for evdi it says

https://github.com/rpmsphere/source/blob/master/e/evdi-1.8.0-1.src.rpm

So, I don't know where you're picking up v1.7.2.  But, still, evdi-1.8.0-1 shows

evdi-1.8.0-1.src.rpm being rebuild for f32 6 months ago.

Since then, there have been changes to the kernel.  6 months ago F32 was using 
5.8.18-200.  The "same" as F31
which was using 5.8.18-100 at its EOL.  At present F32 is at 5.11.11-100.fc32 
and similarly F33 is at
5.11.11-200.fc33.

So, if nobody is actually maintaining the evdi package they wouldn't know to 
fix issues with the latest kernel.
And, I would expect that compiling of the earlier v1.7.2 would fail in a 
similar fashion to the latest 1.8.0.
