DisplayLink Forum - View Single Post - Notification Thread for Carlo for when Mavericks and DisplayLink Play Nice

Hey folks, just wanted to post my good experience.

I am currently using:
MacBook Air (Mid-2012)
Anker USB 3.0 Dual-display dock (HDMI and DVI)
Dell 1905 FP
Dell 1908 FP
DisplayLink 2.1 Drivers

The setup works phenomenally, with almost no lag and a small amount of visual aberration (flickering on when resizing windows/zooming in on web page content, etc.).

I have the exact same dock at my office, with two identical Acer displays (model number escapes me, resolution is 1080p). That setup does not work as expected. Both displays appear in the "Displays" Preference Pane, but only one is active.

My thoughts:

Dual 1080p displays may be causing problems
Two identical displays may cause problems (my home setup has two different displays, despite being the same resolution).

Hope that helps.
