I tried every combination to modify the config file (20-displaylink.conf), but none of them work. So I upload the DLSupportTool file here.

Laptop: Acer aspire v13
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 520
Kernel: 4.12
Xorg:1.18
OS: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS

I update Xorg by:
https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

And it suddenly works, even without the config file. I assume Xorg already fixed the bug.
