Unable to mirror screen on MacBook Pro Retina

Hi there,

I finally managed to get hold of the ASUS MB168+. It's been something I've been looking forward to using for work, as a way of sharing my screen with clients during meetings where we don't have access to a projector or display TV.

Only problem is; after unpacking the monitor and getting it up and running, attempting to mirror the display on my MacBook Pro Retina (OSX 10.9.1) automatically logs me out. Basically, I can only use the external monitor as an additional display.

I know this was logged in known issues with DisplayLink v2.2, but I was wondering if anyone has been able to overcome it or whether it's an issue the developers see will be solved in upcoming releases?

If not, it may be that the monitor will need to be returned to where I bought it from, as I won't be able to use it as needed.

Any guidance would be awesome!

Thanks
Stu
