Not able to add external display with USB 3 to VGA FL2000 chipset in Ubuntu 20.04

us flag

What am I trying?

Trying to add external display using USB 3 to VGA Fresco Logic 2000 chipset adaptor by compiling a driver and loading a module in the kernel 5.4.0-84-generic in Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS.

Problem I am facing.

As soon as I load the modules, the screen flickers, and lsmod shows used_by 1 but there's no display on the target device and the used by in fl2000 goes back to 0.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
