If I where to unplug 1 displaylink USB device the non working monitor would work.

It feels like there's a cap of only 4 monitors... I've attempted adjusting the initial monitors in evdi.conf and to no avail.

To make matters more interesting, if you'd take the same machine with the same displays/configuration and load up windows everything works fine...

So why isn't Linux getting much love displaylink??

If it helps here is diagnostic stuff.
Four displays is the maximum that DisplayLink supports under Linux. Please see this article for more information --> https://support.displaylink.com/know...ubuntu-support

"DisplayLink supports up to four monitors. It may be possible to connect and use more but this is not tested or supported by DisplayLink."
