DisplayLink won't work properly with my MacBook Air running 10.6.1. The image will project just fine (either mirrored display or picking other resolutions), but as soon as I try to play a simple Keynote presentation, I get an error message telling me that I don't have enough VRAM to run the presentation.

Everything works fine with the VGA connector.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Keynote has a bug (feature?) in not working on displays that are software backed. It's stated in the DisplayLink README's as a known issue. There is nothing we can do about. You can enter the bug in apples bug database, but it hasn't helped yet ;-(

I'll do just what you suggest.
