    Running a solo displaylink monitor does not work with ubuntu. period (currently running 18.04). With X, you're stuck with 1 fps and with wayland, terrible screen tearing. In both cases, USB disconnects during startup or resume in about 1 in 10 cases causing connection to fail completely (i.e. cannot recover).

    After 2 months futzing around with DisplayLink displays in Ubuntu with zero useful support from DL or Mimo, i'm giving up and going to switch to HDMI displays.

    DL should stop claiming Linux compatibility, or they should get sued for misrepresentation.
