Hello All,
My objective is to eventually be able to run 3 monitors using displaylink adapters, but for now, I'm just trying to get one to work.
I followed the steps to install on:
http://support.displaylink.com/knowl.../615714#ubuntu
I got to the last step, plugged in the adapter, and nothing.
So, I went into the System Settings > Displays. The additional display was present, but off. Turned it on, hit Apply, and X crashed / restarted. I logged back in, went back to the Displays dialog, and the additional display is gone.
It does not come back after a reboot.
I have gotten it back by uninstalling, rebooting, reinstalling, but the same thing happens - enabling the output crashes X, and then it's gone.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I'm happy to provide any additional information / follow any diagnostic steps.
Ubuntu 14.04.3
Kernel 3.16.0-46-generic
Xorg 1.16.0
Thanks!!
