Do I need an onbard GPU to use Display Link?

Danny - did you end up trying this with your fried GPU?

Wim - would the same apply to a Mac?

I have a MacBook Pro (early 2008 model running OS X 10.7.4) that just lost its internal graphics card (green static lines on display while booting, display freezing just before the log-on screen). It is otherwise still fully functional via remote desktop VNC.

It would be great if I could use a DL-195 adapter with external monitor to get some more use out of this laptop.

Cheers,

Mick
