I too am waiting for the next release

Anyone know where we get 1.5b7 and what it might have improved on since b6?

Thanks for the info! I don't know if I should post the question here or the other thread so chose here for now. Any significant/noticeable updates with this build and/or issues?

For me, its slow -- you definitely can display any video on that screen. It also won't go to sleep on its own, you have to force it to sleep with OPTION, COMMAND, EJECT. Sometimes when it comes out of sleep mode, the screen is all fuzzy or "noisy" (shutting it off and turning it back on usually resolves that, or possibly even moving the mouse around on the screen and dragging a window around will repaint it properly). If they came out with a 64-bit driver I'd be ecstatic. If they just fixed these two issues, I'd at least be semi-happy (for now, anyway...).

Thanks for the feedback. We need a 64-bit driver already!

This is driving me crazy there is no response from DisplayLink at all. I called and was told to call the Manufacturer of the monitor as they have no technical support.

I'm just going to buy two more video cards and be done with it, just don't want the extra noise and power consumption, but oh well.

Would a 64 bit driver help a lot in Snow Leopard? Would it be an "easily noticeable" difference from the current drivers?

And any idea when the drivers are not beta anymore?! It's taking forever!
