I thought Display link drivers were only for USB monitors, not display port, or dvi connected? I have 3 dell i7 laptops with video connectory for display port, DVI and Hdmi running Linux Mint 17->18.3 Ubuntu Based 15->16 just plugging in the monitor to either of the ports with out any DisplayLink drivers, works. No special drivers are required that I know of. Am I missing something about DisplayLink?
