chromeos status?

I see an earlier (~2015) annoucement that all devices are supported on all chromebooks > r51.

I have just purchased an innoview folding 15.6" monitor. This functions by having the bottom half via USB-C altmode and the top half via displaylink over the same usb-c connector.

When I plug it into my chromebook, the lower monitor works. I see a notification about a new usb device, and have a choice of
a) open a usb mass storage on chromebook (there is a small storage w/ a windows+mac driver)
b) pass it through to linux
c) pass it through to android

but chromeos does not use it as a display.

I have tried this on chromeos r124 on 3 diff (pixelbook go, pixel slate, lenovo duet 2024) with the same effect.

This https://www.amazon.ca/InnoView-Exten...0CHYHY9TJ?th=1 device.

Is it still the case that displaylink is expected to work with chromeos?
