Detects Display But Blank

oddsratio · 12-16-2011, 12:32 AM

Thanks for all your hard work. This has been great software since I started using it last year. I am having a similar blank display issue with Lion 10.7.2 and a mimo monitor (it's not detected, though). I just upgraded from SL and this is just one of Lion's many annoyances. Attaching the diagnostic zip below.

We checked your logs and it seems that for some unknown reason, the driver is not correctly installed. Here is the error message in the logs:
/System/Library/Extensions/DisplayLinkDriver.kext/DisplayLinkAgent/USBNivoListener", ...): No such file or directory

Could you please try to uninstall the driver and reinstall it? Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the driver a couple times, but nothing's changed. I've opened the kext file in SLE and in the downloaded driver. They appear to be identical and it's not missing NivoListener. I'm not sure what else it could be.

I have attached the zip files for the same issue. I connect both to my macbook air and iMac all using beta5. Black screen on my monitor (24inch display port) but the computer detects the display...

THanks a ton in advance

Thanks for the logs. The driver seems to have problem in reading the EDID of your display, so it tries to use default modes (but unfortunately these modes are not good for your display). What kind of display are you using? Just for testing, does it have additional inputs other than the display port one?
Thanks
