Does the kernel REALLY have displaylink support?

I did a lot of reading this morning, and finally got a Plugable UGA-2K-A to work on Ubuntu 12.04.4 (precise) by installing and rebooting the mainstream 3.11.10 kernel:

Code:

~$ uname -r
3.11.10-031110-generic

I am also using the Saucy LTS Enablement Stack for 12.04 Precise

The key to this seems to be which kernel you're using--there are regressions in some of the Ubuntu kernels.
