Did you mean that the 1.7 beta drivers don't work for you on 10.6 either? Or that the 1.6 stable drivers don't work on 10.6?

I have 2 machines, one with 10.7 and another with 10.6. the 10.7 machine doesn't work due to the login loop. The 10.6 machines doesn't work with the stable drivers or the beta drivers for 10.7.

Does anyone know when this will be fixed? I just bought this adapter yesterday, and now it won't work lol

there is an easier way.
boot in safe mode. (holding shift key while booting)
after logging in into Lion deinstall DisplayLink und reboot. thats it.
takes 2 minutes. complete restore much more...

Our tests show that this issue is only happening on systems with an active nVidia GPU. Is that the case on all the systems tested?

Is for me:

Ok we managed to debug the issue with Apple's help at WWDC.
I'm sorry if this version of the driver did not seem to be good enough quality but we wanted to share the latest and greatest with you before the conference and I think it has been worthwhile.
I can't disclose the details but for the moment we'll work at a workaround to enable at least basic functionality on all GPUs. In the meanwhile we'll continue to work with Apple to restore full compatibility.

Excellent, Carlo.

Thanks for the update.

jbarrow · 06-10-2011, 03:08 PM

Is there an eta on the workaround, perhaps?

Carlo · 06-10-2011, 03:25 PM

I just tried the workaround in its current state and only the background is drawn. If you don't want to actually see any windows on your USB display it's perfectly fine!

More seriously I can't commit to a date. We are working on it and will continue working on it until you'll see a beta 2. I don't expect any shift in priority: Lion compatibility is our #1 concern on Mac and we want to give you something working well before Lion ships.

lol

Thanks for the quick reply.
