I'm assuming that dkms is failing to build the module automatically for the new kernel when you restart your machine. You can use dkms status
to see if there is an issue with DKMS on your machine.
Note that instead of reinstalling the rpm, you should be able to just use dkms install evdi/1.5.0.2
to build the evdi module for the current kernel.
from displaylink-rpm.
dkms status showed that dkms was in fact having issues:
$ sudo dkms status
Error! Could not locate dkms.conf file.
File: /var/lib/dkms/evdi/1.0.138/source/dkms.conf does not exist.
I found that was an old one and removed it, and now it seems a lot happier:
$ sudo dkms status
evdi, 1.5.0.2, 4.15.15-300.fc27.x86_64, x86_64: installed
$
Thanks!

Also having a similar problem each time I upgrade the kernel (F28), but doesn't seem to be any issue with dkms, if there are suggestions for other things to check?

Not sure if the (WARNING! Missing some built modules!)
are anything related, but it was working on those versions at the time, as well as 4.16.12.
Just tried reinstalling the displaylink-rpm but external monitor still not working. I can see it in 'displays' settings but I can't enable it.

@Lyalpha not sure about your issue, but it's most likely a different one. If you haven't solved it, please open it in a new thread for easier tracking
