Now that the 10.7.3 update was released, I was hoping that I can start to use my monitor and the latest DisplayLink driver would be usable, but reading through the forum, I can make a conclusion that you still don't have a working driver software.
I have a MacBook Pro 15'' late 2008.
Please inform me that should the latest driver work? Should I even try to install it? I'm hoping that you would inform me that should I even try because last time I spent hours of installing and removing the driver software (blank login screen problem).
If the latest drivers are not usable, what measures are your team taking to create a working driver?

Dear Pyrliu,
There is a bug in Max OS X that prevents our driver to work on your MPB model (and the mid 2009 model). This problem is shared by all software graphics on OS X 10.7.x. Apple has acknowledged the issue but has not given us a fix date for this issue so I can't answer your question unfortunately.
We know that 10.7.3 does not fix the issue, still have to try on 10.8 preview on this laptop model.
As it looks no future driver from DisplayLink will be able to resolve the issue: there is no point in trying new drivers with the same OS version.
As soon as the issue will be resolved in a Mac OS update we'll announce it on this forum.
In the short term I can only suggest to go back to 10.6.8 or change Mac.. not ideal I know.
Best regards,
Carlo
