I tried plugging the adapter into the USB 3.0 port on the laptop first, and then the DVI monitor cables into the adapter (and the monitors are powered and turned on). I've also tried plugging the monitors into the adapter first, and then the adapter into the laptop. And the adapter has external power and a power button, so I've tried having that on and off in various ways too.

I have been using your RPM version 1.0.68-2 from the beginning.

How much does this depend on the graphics driver being used to run the integrated display and the VGA and DisplayPort ports (not currently being used)? This laptop has NVIDIA Optimus hardware which does some kind of mixing of Intel integrated and NVIDIA card graphics, but I don't have Bumblebee installed to drive that, so it's disabled in the BIOS. I am using Nouveau as the graphics driver, as the NVIDIA binary blob has given me trouble.
