ID: 354 - Updated: Jan 24, 2014 - Category: Troubleshooting
Symptom

This article details the known issues with DisplayLink displays with OS X 10.9.
Problem

The following issues have been found on OS X 10.9 and do not currently have a resolution

Second DisplayLink display connected may be blank.
Setting rotation on one display rotates a different screen.
Some applications can show severe flickering on DisplayLink screens. Examples of applications that show this issue are Safari, QuickTime and the App store.
Some applications can show corruption and/or missing contents while updating windows contents. Examples are Maps, iBooks and the Dock.
Display arrangement is not kept when using 2 or more DisplayLink displays.
All screens black and unusable after unplugging a DisplayLink screen. This is caused by Apple's Window server crashing. This can be recovered by replugging the DisplayLink device.
On the Retina Macbook Pro, changing the layout to mirror logs the user out. Again this is caused by Apple's Window server crashing.
Apple menu icon misplaced on DisplayLink screens

Oh and they forgot - don't even try to undock and re-dock because chances are it won't come back on properly.

Oh, also, waking from sleep does whatever it damn well pleases with the monitor configurations.

In summary, the product is completely unusable.
