Yosemite, no way?

Can verify that a single display does work, but, as previous poster advised, does not display transparencies properly. Corners of windows are also not displayed properly.

Maps, surprisingly (an app that had lots of problems previously), displays far better.

Still testing.

I have been using Yosemite for a couple weeks now with 3 monitors (one on thunderbolt, 2 with DisplayLinks). I had been using 4 monitors before Mavericks but I could not get the 4th to power when Mavericks came out and have not tried to run the 4th with Yosemite. The monitors work the same as it did on Mavericks for me. Not great, but I get a long. Need to reorientate the monitors every time I unplug or restart my MacBook Pro, thats the most annoying part.

Similar experiences.

DL 2.1 worked about the same on 10.9 and 10.10 for me. Single USB monitor worked, dragging could be slow, but otherwise fine for my usage.

I just learned of installed 2.2 so no idea what that'll change on 10.10.

Unrelated but FYI the first 10.10 public beta (just installed it on my production machine) isn't much more stable than DP 4 was on my non-production machine. Things periodically slow to a crawl and require a reboot. I think it's a network file access loop.

Most software runs fine on 10.10, VM Ware Fusion being the only notable exception I've encountered. I used to have beta access to VM Ware products, but don't any more, I'm guessing they have a VM Ware Fusion release out there that works with 10.10, I just don't care having moved mostly to Virtual Box/Vagrant/Docker.

I get a black bar at the top, and the dock is overly white. I'm on the 2.2 driver.

I'm running 10.10 and echo the comments above. It's usable with the 2.2 driver, but I get request slow downs in performance, artefacts on the display and problems with the dock/transparency/etc.

I'm running 2 additional displays - one on Thunderbolt and another from USB.

Don't have any issues with orientation or power. I was happy with 2.2 on Mavericks and I think that Yosemite is close-isn to where it needs to be for my needs.
