  1. Hi everyone

    Hi everyone, I'm facing a persistent and difficult multi-factor issue with DisplayLink Manager on my Mac that
    seems to involve macOS security features, driver behavior, and potential USB host controller compatibility. I’ve boiled it down to the points below and would appreciate any deep diagnostics or testing ideas:
    Environments tested:
    • macOS Sequoia 15.x and Tahoe 16.x on Apple Silicon (M1/M3 Snow Rider 2) — similar symptoms across both.
    • Multiple docks (USB-C and Thunderbolt variants).
    • Dual / triple monitor setups via DisplayLink.
    Is there an official Apple-signed entitlement bundle or kext requirement (beyond Screen…

  3. Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

    Will you be supporting Ubuntu 16.04 LTS? Got an ETA?
    It would be great if you would add/post a deb or even better a ppa site.

    Thanks,
    Dennis

  4. I suggest adding this portal to your website, for example, in the “Useful Links” or “Community Resources” section.

    I suggest adding this portal to your website, for example, in the “Useful Links” or “Community Resources” section. This https://betgr8-kenya.com/ specializes in providing high-quality, practical materials on personal finance, investments, passive income, and online business strategies. It helps people who work remotely to better manage their earnings, plan their budget, and achieve financial independence. I believe that this link will be a valuable addition, as it will support platform users in their desire not only to work effectively, but also to successfully manage their finances, which is key for any professional.

  6. Update documentation for disabling PageFlip on Ubuntu

    The documentation at https://support.displaylink.com/knowledgebase/articles/1181623-displaylink-ubuntu-driver-after-recent-x-upgrades suggests creating a configuration file in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d, however configuration in this directory may be ignored in favor of user-specific config at /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d. See https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=198719 for an explanation.

  7. Implement Clamshell mode for Big Sur / M1 Chip

    I cannot run external displays while in clamshell mode on Big Sur, while the laptop is open it works perfectly fine.

    The second you close the laptop and enter clamshell mode you lose signal to your external displays.

    This has issue has over 450 votes and has been an issue since August 2020, how long do we have to wait for this to be implemented or is there any work arounds that are currently working?

    This is a major issue that is affecting thousands of users, we haven't had any update since November.... Will this ever be fixed?

  9. Add Fine‑Tuning Color Calibration Controls for Individual Displays

    Created by Wheelie Life
    I’d love to see DisplayLink Manager include more advanced color calibration controls for each connected display. Right now, adjusting color balance, gamma, or temperature requires using the OS settings or third‑party tools, which isn’t ideal when fine‑tuning multiple monitors connected via DisplayLink.

    A built‑in calibration panel could allow users to:

    Adjust RGB levels, gamma curves, and color temperature per display

    Save custom color profiles for different workflows (photo editing, video, general use)

    Easily apply consistent color settings across all attached screens

    This would be especially helpful for creators and professionals who rely…

    DisplayLink cannot be responsible for uninstalling 3rd party software. This needs to be done by a user so they understand what is happening.

    We alert the user that there is incompatible software installed, and provide a link to describe how to remove it. It is then the choice of the user to uninstall, rather than DisplayLink software automatically uninstalling other software.

  11. How do I install on an external disk?

    For Apple OSX:
    Although the installer shows a destination button during the install process, once you start it skips it. You cannot select another destination.
    I would like to install the driver on an external disk, is there a work around?

  13. DisplayLink Issues After macOS Sequoia 15.4.1 Update

    After upgrading to macOS Sequoia 15.4.1, I noticed that DisplayLink Manager no longer works as expected. External monitors connected via DisplayLink are not being detected, and the DisplayLink Manager app either fails to launch properly or shows no connected displays.

    Before the update, everything was working normally with the same hardware and configuration. I’ve already tried the usual steps such as restarting the system, reinstalling the latest version of DisplayLink Manager, and re-granting permissions under Privacy & Security (Screen Recording, Accessibility, and Input Monitoring), but without success.

    It seems likely that the 15.4.1 update introduced…

  16. 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**. :-(((((((((((((

  20. Problems with Netflix and HBO Go on MacBook Pro with the most recent version of DisplayLink (v. 13).

    I just updated the Displaylnk driver to the current version (13.7.6) for Mac OS X Ventura, and now neither Netflix nor HBO Max will work properly; the videos won't display, but the audio is fine. I've tested this in both Firefox 141.0 and Chrome 138.0.7204.184. If you want both platforms to function, you'll either have to disable Displaylink Geometry Dash or exit the app. Even after removing and reinstalling Displaylink, the problem persisted. Two high-definition external monitors are connected to my Plugable UD-3900Z.
