MBP 15" i7 OS X 10.6.7 DisplayLink 1.6b3 DL-195- clam shell not working

Thanks for the response. I've replaced one of the DisplayLink adapters with a Mini Display Port adapter to DVI connector. One monitor plugs into the MDP-DVI and the other monitor plugs into the DisplayLink adapter. I'm using a bluetooth keyboard and mouse (non usb). Other than this snag, the DisplayLink adapter works fine, just wish I'd known this before spending a Saturday trying to figure out why this didn't work. BTW, the support staff at Plugable (the DisplayLink adapter I'm using) are great. They responded to my email about this pretty fast. Not sure if this issue is posted somewhere in the FAQ or the "list of things customers would expect to work but don't work on OS X" document but adding issue to it might help future customers. Thanks again.
