yes, updating seems to have fixed it, for my w7 machine this means displaylink 6.1.35667 and vtmultidisplay 3.0.7 en x64. There are other problems, though, but they don't seem to really affect functionality. for instance I believe there is a conflict between this stuff and the nvidia control panel. I can typically not access it, but since I can do most of what I need to dso from within vibook and windows control panel its no big deal. The only thing which is still an issue, and I may choose to just live with it is resolution vs aspect ratio. The two with the vi-books adjusted themselves nicely to a lower resolution, but the two that I have hooked up to the vga and dvi directly give me a black band top and bottom to retain the aspect ratio. I changed to a much lower resolution so i dont have to use glasses. like 1200x800 on a 24". I got into the nvidia control panel, or rather, dell did remotely, and after that I still could, but computer had trouble restarting, and then repaired itself and started fine, looked like it restored itself, then reinstalled both vi-book programs. So I may just live with the black bands. While I was in the nvidia control panel it looked like there were settings to change the screen to full screen and override the aspect ratio, but they didnt work, presumably because of the conflict. But seems there must be some after-market software to fix that. it was never a problem on my old xp.
