1. Add firmware / version information to the Dock Management Tool

   While the firmware update is Silent, in large scale deployments it would be useful to know / be able to report on the Firmware version.
   This would enable admins to rule-out old firmware as the cause of faults and detect where an older client is still in use.

   If this information is readily available it could be added as another command in the Dock Management Tool, or in the Support Info Tool

2. Conflicts using Nvidia Prime, Displaylink and Ubuntu

   I would like to describe conflicts using Nvidia Prime, Displaylink and Ubuntu in my experience.

   My environment: Ubuntu 18.10, Nvidia GTX 1070 (nvidia-driver-415), Displaylink 5.1, Asus MB168B+ (USB monitor), laptop Gigabyte Aero15x.

   If I try to login with nvidia profile activated and anything connected in USB ports (even only a mouse), I will face a login loop. It only will stop after disconnecting all USB devices, restarting the system and then I'll be able to login into my Ubuntu. Once logged in, I can connect my USB devices and use everything included my second monitor.

   If I try to login with intel profile activated. There will be no problems. Displaylink works ok.

   Another interesting behavior. If I start up my laptop with all USB devices connected, of course only possible using intel profile; Displaylink will work perfectly. But if instead, during an current session I plug on my external monitor, I will always see blurry and weird definition around the mouse pointer.

   If Displaylink could improve this will help lots of Linux users.
   Thanks!

6. Hotkeys for screen rotation and other display functions

   Enable hotkeys for screen rotation (and other display functions). Other drivers use ctrl-alt-left and ctrl-alt-up (etc) to rotate the current screen, this should be available for DisplayLink as well. Phones and tablets have set the bar with seamless screen rotation, DisplayLink should support as near to this experience as possible.

7. Ubuntu driver: using dlm.service is rather unfortunate for a clash with dlm cluster control daemon

   See:
   https://pagure.io/dlm/blob/master/f/init/dlm.service

   It would be better if it could fail with an error in case the file already
   exists and is not authentic (from previous installation).

   Thanks for considering.

8. Xrandr panning on Linux

   I have a 12inch 2880x1920 monitor (eDP-1) and a 21inch (eDP-1) with a 1920x1080 native res. I tried to use

   xrandr --fb 6720x2160 --output DVI-I-2-2 --mode 1920x1080 --right-of eDP-1 --scale 2x2 --panning 3840x2160+2880+0

   and I got:

   X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
   Major opcode of failed request: 140 (RANDR)
   Minor opcode of failed request: 29 (RRSetPanning)
   Serial number of failed request: 46
   Current serial number in output stream: 46

   I have an Asus t303ua
   with:
   VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 520 (rev 07) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])

   Is there a plan to support panning in the future on Linux?

10. Make the Linux driver open source and get it into the kernel

    If the DisplayLink driver existed in the kernel, it would be SO much easier for the users to get it working. In my role as Chief Digital Officer for a large company (of 8000 people), I would probably have bought 500 of these devices IF the driver were just upstream (you know, how Linux devices normally "just work" without the aggro common in the Windows world). However, the annoyance of a manual driver install, especially when it's broken on updates to newer kernels, is just something I wouldn't want to invest in. Please consider that proprietary drivers are serious impediment to sales, and just work with a willing community upstream.

11. Enable Using AirPlay, for macOS 10.12.+ Siera Just like is being done on High Siera and Mojave

    I am a video deejay using a Macbook that has a failed GPU so i currently rely on one of your devices to connect to an external display.I upgraded to Mac OS High sierra and realized that my display link driver works differently(blue airplay icon) and i have much better performance now(faster frame rates with mix-emergency & Serato ,transparency on the dock And task bar),thank you for that .But The problem is Mac Os High Sierra is Just too Unstable right now for example due to the failed GPU i have completely disabled it but because of that my laptop does not sleep when l close the lid also when it sleeps it cannot wake the screen when i wake it up also i cannot control the screen brightness worst of all i have experienced 3 complete unrecoverable Os crushes in the past two weeks since finally upgrading to high sierra from mac OS sierra so i`ve reinstalled mac OS sierra and my computer works just fine now but im back to the older functioning display link driver that has better resolution on my external display running natively in 1360*768 resolution but has much much lower frame rates on both mix emergency and virtual DJ video output because it doesn't work like the air play one on high sierra .

    so my suggestion is that you please implement the same airplay idea on high sierra it works much better

    my current display link hardware is a USB 2.0 to dvi ,hdmi and vga (USB 2.0 UGA 17)

14. Work on compatibility w/ Ableton Live 10 (current version crashes Live)

    I'm running MacOS 10.13.3 (downgraded from 10.13.4 for reasons that I'm sure you know) on a MacBook Air (13-Inch Mid 2011, 1.8Ghz Core i7, 4 GB RAM) and whenever I have any of your latest (e.g. most recent final releases, two most recent "Betas" to fix the issue with MacOS 10.13.4) it causes Ableton Live 10 (10.0.1) to not load/run.

    The main reason that my computer system and I have a DisplayLink in my environment is for making music. I use the two screen setup while working with Live to have my AU and VST plugins visible while tracking. Without this software in place my second display is essentially a paperweight.

    It'd be great if you could test later releases with Live 10 so this is actually usable for me.

    I've verified that it's the DisplayLink software by installing and uninstalling the software and being able to successful replicate the problem as expected.

    Please let me know if you would like any logs.

    Gamma color calibration seems to be unavailable for the Displaylink on Ubuntu.
    Allowing it will enable night time screen color changing software to work and also allow manual customization with xrandr commands.

    Hello, we have started changing to offer an app from the Windows Store on Windows 10.

19. Ubuntu drivers eating a lot of CPU. Not always but at least 50% of the times

    I have actually a very slow PC because of this:
    PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
    
    1541 root 20 0 2343424 51804 2624 S 111.9 1.4 198:49.14 DisplayLinkMana
    in other words, DisplayLinkMana(ger) eats a lot of CPU. from 50 to more than 100%

    sometimes not.

    I think this is an issue, that should be fixed.

    Thank you.
