It sounds like you haven't actually got a compiled version of the
kernel module evdi, so something is broken there.  Perhaps you built
it against a kernel you aren't booted into?

I looked and the RPM Sphere 3rd-party repo has a dkms package for
evdi:

https://rpmsphere.github.io/

I don't know if the repo is trusted, but there is a source RPM here:
https://github.com/rpmsphere/source/blob/master/e/evdi-1.8.0-1.src.rpm
