Downgrading to 2.4 seems to have resolved the issue.

Hi Dave,

Could you describe the kind of issues are you experiencing on Yosemite?

Sure. Every time I put the screen to sleep using a hot corner or by inactivity, the DisplayLink-connected screen would not wake up. The other displays (both the inbuilt and DisplayPort screen) would both awake. From memory disconnecting and reconnecting or restarting rectified the issue but obviously wasn't practical.

At other times I also had some inconsistent issues where nothing would show except the cursor and a black background on the DisplayLink monitor. Minimising windows via the menu bar would show the minimising animation to the dock on the DisplayPort screen from where they should have been on the DisplayLink monitor.

While I'm at it (not sure if it's been resolved already) but I had to start using the DisplayPort/Thunderbolt port rather than the second output of the Kensington dock a while back due to inconsistent arrangement of the monitors every time I connected. This happened after moving to Yosemite, and not before.

Thank you Dave,

We'll try to reproduce the first issue, the second is already being investigated. We introduced a workaround for the third issue in version 2.4, that should be fine now.

Best regards,

I am noticing a couple issues i have not seen mentioned.

I have brand new MBA Retina (13" 2015) - I powered it on did some updates and installed firefox and displaylink drivers - the issues i have seen:

1. The Dock on my HDMI external monitor is white instead of a semi-transparent - it sounds like something since mavericks, but i can't remember

2. I did update to El Capitan last night. And this AM, I had one instance where my mouse pointer changed to vertical bars with little tails top and bottom - so not exactly a pipe symbol. Moving mouse back to main screen changed it back to an arrow and all is fine.

EDIT:

3. Colors in title bars are really mottled and off color. The laptop has gray title bars, but the external monitor is purplish with mottling/gradient. Just moving the mouse around changes this too. I have an Asus monitor running at 1080P.

EDIT2 - 1 and 3 resolved by checking reduce transparency in accessibility


Nothing really bad at this point, but annoying.
