This device uses an older, DL-1x5 chip. You should not install DisplayLink driver for it, they are driven by kernel inbox "udl" module.

Some DL-1x5 devices have multiple USB configurations, and they come up in configuration 2 by default which is mass-storage - this way Windows could see them as disk with drivers. The Windows software, once installed switched such devices to configuration 1.

So, if you switch the device to configuration 1 manually, udl driver should pick it up.

This can be also automated with udev rules, see https://libdlo.freedesktop.org/wiki/DeviceQuirks/ for inspiration and more detailed explanation.

Thanks,
Michal
