U3DUALADA not detected in Ubuntu 16.04.2
after re-installing NVIDIA drivers.
---
The NVIDIA had to be reinstalled
because my "fixed" (non-displayLink) monitors flickered in an infinite loop after boot.

NVIDIA was reinstalled like this:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/76093...vidia-graphics
sudo apt-get purge nvidia-*
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt-get update.
sudo apt-get install nvidia-375

After this monitors stopped flickering but Displaylink DVI outputs disappeared from xrandr and GUI "detect displays".

Uninstalling and reinstalling DisplayLink drivers didn't help.

Attached your log file.

You do realize that proprietary NVIDIA drivers are generally not supported with evdi?
That said, you can try switching the NVIDIA driver to be DRM kernel mode setting compatible - see here for some hints: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php...l_mode_setting

Let us know if it worked - more people might find it useful.

Cheers,

I would REALLY love to know if this works. am currently working to get 4 D3100 boxes working on brand new XPS 15's with GTX 1050 cards. Seriously idiotic to have to use the OS drivers for such high end cards and it works for crap anyway. Tearing, lag and artifacts are not acceptable.

And what idiot decided that encrypted log files were a good idea. Somebody just needs to get rid of that guy. Clueless people should NOT be making decisions like that.

So. I finally got my D3100 working on Linux Mint 18.1 with NVIDIA drivers.
