Use the output from gtf (after Modeline) in xrandr --newmode
Replace DVI-I-1-1 with your xrandr DisplayLink output.

Hi Sparxy, hmmm... that didn't work.

It creates a new mode, shows the resolution in the Display settings, and appears to create a 1920x1080 buffer in Gnome.

But the DisplayLink is still showing a clipped 640x480 display of the center of that larger buffer. The monitor is still 640x480.
