I've found no way to do this other than by completely disabling the system logging functionality.

You can do so by running the following command in terminal every time you reboot your system:

Code:

sudo launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.syslogd.plist

Not at all ideal, but in theory DisplayLink don't seem to think they can do anything about it.

I looked into trying to get syslogd to just ignore/not display the messages in the past, but nothing seemed to work - and even if they hadn't been displayed they would still have been written to the file on your hard drive, which is the main issue with this for me (1000's of messages written a day = lower SSD life).
