I'm running Ubuntu 16.10 with Gnome 3.20.4. X crashes every time the display link device is plugged in. I have tested this on 3 different display link devices. Same result for them all. This was working in 6.04. Does display link intend to support Ubuntu version other than LTS?

I bought this device specifically because the manufacturer claims it supports Ubuntu. All I have now is an over complicated USB hub and unusable monitors.
