    Hi,
    I want to add my experience with ubuntu 21.04 (+nvidia driver) and display link driver.

    Some specs
    - Linux vin 5.11.0-18-generic #19-Ubuntu SMP Fri May 7 14:22:03 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
    - Nvidia Driver Version: 460.80 CUDA Version: 11.2
    - Display link 5.4.0-55.153.

    1. after clean boot or after wake up from sleep, while loading the UI, the pc freeze if the display link port is connected. No terminal, no responses.
    2. setting properties for the displays (moving, ordering etc) also freeze the pc
    3. I can use the display link device if connected after login but it shows some mouse flickering

    Glad to provide more feedback if needed

    update 1: uninstalling nvidia driver made the pc work again

    update 2: in kern.log I also found this trace
