  7. Enhance Installer Compatibility with Automated MDM Deployments

    In enterprise environments utilizing MDM solutions like Jamf Pro for macOS device management, software installations often occur during automated workflows such as PreStage enrollment. These installations run in a root context without an active user session. 

    Currently, the DisplayLink Manager installer includes a post-installation script that attempts to launch the application using:

    currentuser=$(/usr/bin/stat -f %Su /dev/console)
    launchctl asuser $(/usr/bin/id -u "$current
    user") /usr/bin/open "/Applications/DisplayLink Manager.app"

    This approach fails when no user is logged in, leading to installation errors in automated deployment scenarios.

    Proposed Enhancement:

    Modify the post-installation script to check for an active user session before attempting to…

    DisplayLink Manager (latest version as of posting)

    Behavior:
    DisplayPort still functions

  9. Geometry Dash Lite vs. Geometry Dash Full Version: What’s Different?

    In Geometry Dash Lite, customization options are limited, with only a few icons and colors available. The full version expands this significantly, offering more ways to personalize your cube, ship, and other forms. It also introduces a level editor, daily challenges, achievements, and user-created levels, which greatly extend replayability.

    The Anti-Game Design Manifesto: How Minimalism Enhances Cruelty
    This post focuses on the game's aesthetic and mechanical choices, arguing that its simple presentation is crucial to the success of its elaborate traps.

    Target Audience
    Game designers, art critics, and fans of minimalist games.

    Core Thesis
    By using minimalist pixel graphics and a simple ruleset (move, jump, door), Level Devil strips away unnecessary visual noise, forcing the player's focus onto the layout, which is where the betrayal is hidden. level devil

  14. Is there a way to decompress DisplayLink data on another device?

    I would love to be able to forward raw DisplayLink data to another device (running a host OS like Linux/Windows) and decode that data on the device for a live PiP sort-of display. This could enable devices that allow hosting other devices' displays on one single master device. I am a hobbyist looking to create a proof-of-concept device that allows me to control another device from mine. (Focusing on high-ish performance and not using existing tech like Wireless transmission, or other non-native solutions) DisplayLink seems like a perfect candidate currently, since the data is compressed and forwarded to a SoC…

  18. Implement IOMMU support

    Implement IOMMU Support
    IOMMU is necessary on many libvirt based linux virtual hosts in order to allow guest machines to make use of the host's hardware, such as graphics cards and network cards. In its current state, turning on IOMMU results in Displaylink being unable to communicate with secondary displays, completely negating any benefit from having a displaylink dock.

  19. Start supporting Linux on Lenovo's Thinkpad hardware!

    Lenovo is selling docking solutions for their Thinkpad laptos. These docks have DisplayLink stickers at the button but none of them is working properly with Linux! Deepin Linux (based on Debian) is massively used in China by IT professionals working with Lenovo's Thinkpad hardware. We want at least dual monitor support working with this hardware. At the moment getting this to work is just a big pain in the a**. :-(((((((((((((
