How to install and use displaylink DL-165 on linux mint 19
 
Hi everyone, I'm sorry for my english.
I'm trying and trying again without any success to use my usb 2.0 display adapter - usb-vga-165 model with displaylink chip DL-165.

Qualcuno potrebbe aiutarmi a farlo funzionare spiegandomi i vari passaggi e comandi da eseguire? (sono un utente novello con linux).

In practice I would need to connect two monitors to use them together with the built-in monitor (LSVD). The monitors are an ACER K222HQL 22'' (1920x1080) and a SAMSUNG SyncMaster 940nw 19'' (1440x900)

The USB ports of my notebook are only 3.0

This is the configuration of my notebook:

System:
Host: sswdev-X552CL Kernel: 4.15.0-39-generic x86_64 bits: 64 gcc: 7.3.0
Desktop: MATE 1.20.1 (Gtk 3.22.30-1ubuntu1) Distro: Linux Mint 19 Tara

Machine:
Device: laptop System: ASUSTeK product: X550CL v: 1.0 serial: N/A
Mobo: ASUSTeK model: X550CL v: 1.0 serial: N/A
BIOS: American Megatrends v: X550CL.201 date: 08/02/2013

CPU:
Dual core Intel Core i7-3537U (-MT-MCP-) arch: Ivy Bridge rev.9 cache: 4096 KB
flags: (lm nx sse sse2 sse3 sse4_1 sse4_2 ssse3 vmx) bmips: 9976
clock speeds: max: 3100 MHz 1: 1020 MHz 2: 1086 MHz 3: 1525 MHz 4: 1350 MHz

Graphics:
Card-1: Intel 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller bus-ID: 00:02.0
Card-2: NVIDIA GF117M [GeForce 610M/710M/810M/820M / GT620M/625M/630M/720M] bus-ID: 01:00.0
Display Server: x11 (X.Org 1.19.6 ) driver: intel Resolution: 1920x1080@60.00hz, 1440x900@59.89hz
OpenGL: renderer: Mesa DRI Intel Ivybridge Mobile version: 4.2 Mesa 18.0.5 Direct Render: Yes
Audio: Card Intel 7 Series/C216 Family High Definition Audio Controller driver: snd_hda_intel bus-ID: 00:1b.0
Sound: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture v: k4.15.0-39-generic

Network:
Card-1: Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 Wireless Network Adapter driver: ath9k bus-ID: 03:00.0 IF: wlp3s0 state: down mac: 24:0a:64:90:43:27
Card-2: Realtek RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller
driver: r8169 v: 2.3LK-NAPI port: d000 bus-ID: 04:00.2 IF: enp4s0f2 state: down mac: d8:50:e6:0c:14:64
Card-3: Atheros TP-Link TL-WN821N v3 / TL-WN822N v2 802.11n [Atheros AR7010+AR9287] driver: ath9k_htc usb-ID: 003-074 IF: wlx6470021c34df state: N/A mac: N/A

At the moment the nouveau graphic driver is active. Regarding the nvidia card, I recommend only the nvidia-340 driver as recommended.

Thank you in advance
