The 10.13: High Sierra Thread

MacOS Version: macOS 10.13 (17A405)
Computer Make and Build Year: MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2017) 2.9 core i7, 16gb memory
Displaylink Driver Version: 4.0.0
Displaylink Device: HP 3005pr
What You Are Experiencing:

The graphics cards on the displaylink displays will not switch to the radeon 560 card from the intel card no matter the energy saving settings for auto switching. The built in display will switch to the radeon card but the displaylinks will stay on the intel card and the computer will try to use both cards.

This creates issues when I try to open a program that needs to use the radeon card like adobe premiere. It causes these high graphics demand programs to crash or freeze.

I have tried reinstalling a few times. It worked great on sierra and would switch appropriately. I tested this on another identical computer running sierra and the graphics card would switch for all displays when it switched.

Any thoughts? I did not get any message to enable anything in the security dialog preferences.
