Hi rubysolo, I had a similar problem with both Tiger & Leopard. I used the correct DisplayLink drivers but couldn't get the resolution I wanted. I spent extra money and purchased an "EVGA 16" external usb graphics card, which should handle a max resolution of 1920x1080. Others have gotten max rez with this setup, but not me. I also can't get 1600x1200 like you. I don't know if this is a problem with the hardware, software or both. For whatever its worth I'm using an older model 1.1 Intel Mac mini.
I'll be installing Snow Leopard soon but it looks like their is no rush to install DisplayLink!!!!!!!!!
Were you using your described setup with Leopard and could you get 1600x1200??????? If so, that would point to a software problem. I allways thought my problem was the hardware.
