Unhappy AOC E1659Fwu not working with Ubuntu 16.04.01 LTS

Hello,

I just bought an AOC E1659Fwu 15.6" monitor and am trying to get it to work with Ubuntu 16.04.01 LTS.

I am using a Lenovo G580 with a 2.4GHz Intel Processor and 3GB RAM. I have a 64bit Ubuntu 16.04.01 LTS installed on it. The computer has two USB 3.0 ports.

I installed DisplayLink Driver displaylink-driver-1.2.65 (later I un-installed this version, restarted and installed displaylink-driver-1.0.335. No success.)

When I plug the monitor in , the AOC logo comes up and then the monitor goes black. I have tried using both USB dongles connected to 2 USB 3.0 ports.

Is there anything I can do to make this work?

Also when I try this monitor in WIndows 10, the extended desktop shows up, however the auto-pivot function doesn't work. So the monitor works except for Ubuntu or and doesn't do auto-pivot in WIndows 10.

Is there anything I can do to fix these problems?

Thanks in Advance
