Default DisplayLink support for Linux- possible solution?

Hi All,

This page:

http://lists.fedoraproject.org/piper...ay/108154.html

talks about a package that gives 'assorted fixes for USB VGA' and 'Fix DisplayLink USB VGA support'.

I have Red Hat OpenClient 64.
After trying for about two hours to download and install the package, or even FIND the right package, I am thoroughly beaten.


I THINK it might be available here, but everything I've tried has failed to load:

http://dev.laptop.org/git/projects/olpc-utils/

Can anyone figure out how to get this update, and if it will give you Linux USB Display Link support? Would greatly appreciate, thanks
