DisplayLink 3100 / Ubuntu 16.04

Looks like you're using a proprietary driver for your NVIDIA card. This is unfortunately not a supported configuration, but you may try to force "power saving mode" - let me know if this helps.

Thanks,

Is there any ETA on when this will support these proprietary drivers? Kind of a shame to not be able to use the better GPU here.

You can try to enable KMS for NVIDIA proprietary driver, making it compatible with modesetting. AFAIK this is not the default. Let us know if it works.

Cheers,
Michal
