I was using the DisplayLink 2.0 alpha 2 version on my 10.8.2 powerbook to do a PowerPoint 2011 presentation over Webex (tm). Lots of possible problems...
Things worked mostly fine, except when I left a particular PowerPoint page sit too long, the screen would lock up, and I would not be able to use the arrow keys or other keys to move to the next slide. Spending more than 30 seconds on any one slide would do it.
In fact, the entire presentation was locked up: Escape didn't work, most of the other things I tried also failed. Ultimately, I would us F9 or F10 (can't remember which) to zoom in all the display windows then out, then a few random clicks regain control.
I'm going to try the newer alpha3 version of the software.
