I installed the latest 2.0 drivers from DisplayLink but there is no sign of anything appearing on the screen or in System Preferences.
I've run the Disk Utility permissions fix and reinstalled the drivers.
I have confirmed the existence of the Displaylink files in /Library and also the existence of the daemon in ps:
new-host-4:LaunchAgents rlutwak$ ps
PID TTY TIME CMD
282 ttys000 0:00.02 -bash
new-host-4:LaunchAgents rlutwak$ ps ax | grep Display
75 ?? Ss 0:02.55 /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/DisplayLink/DisplayLinkManager
230 ?? S 0:04.73 /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/DisplayLink/DisplayLinkUserAgent
294 s000 S+ 0:00.00 grep Display

How do I know that my hardware isn't defective?

Great news! I may found the fix here for you if you're running 10.8.4:

Basically go in to disk utility and click repair permissions on your HDD, restart, and you should be good to go.
