Ubuntu DisplayLink Devices crash x11 session/computer (?) sometimes (reproducible)

It seems OpenGL was disabled (which I realized because some window effects weren't working), it had been disabled due to "driver crashing" in the past, but now that it's re-enabled I am not able to easily reporduce the youtube video x11 crash.

I'll test more and see if it crashes anymore or if not having OpenGL running was causing the issue to begin with.

While switching to OpenGL 3.1 did resolve the reproducible youtube crash, I am still experiences crashes, though less frequent and not as easily reproducible.

Report attached.

Just jumping in to say "me too" with Ubuntu 22.04.1 on my Dell XPS with DisplayStation, 2 screens...

Seems whenever I use Firefox to download a file more than maybe 300mb, the external screens freeze and I normally have to reboot.
