Interestingly, it seems like the eGPU stuff is causing all sorts of issues all around. Very similar issues were reported using eGPUs and High Sierra: https://forums.developer.apple.com/m.../264366#264366
The most interesting part (to me), is that where I noticed it thinks the external display is using the internal video card in the profiler, and in that thread, the same -- the external GPU seems to also be reported to be using the internal card(s). Mind you, that thread is from late last year, but based upon Apple's docs, built-in eGPU support would be being added in to high sierra during this cycle. I may be way off track, but it's an interesting coincidence if not related. |

Another thing of note: I saw my full desktop momentarily immediately after login. It flashed up for a full second or so. I found this line interesting in the system log during that time:
Feb 19 12:02:24 clarity DisplayLinkUserAgent[263]: BUG in libdispatch client: kevent[EVFILT_MACHPORT] add: "No such file or directory" - 0x2 Also these: Feb 19 12:02:34 clarity com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (com.displaylink.useragent): This service is defined to be constantly running and is inherently inefficient. Feb 19 12:02:34 clarity com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (com.displaylink.useragent): Please switch away from OnDemand to KeepAlive.

Also I noticed if I kill -HUP the pid of DisplayLinkUserAgent, my desktop on that monitor flashes up for a second before the yellow takes over again.

So after doing all that, I unplugged everything and closed the lid (put the machine to sleep). When I woke it up this morning and attached all the peripherals, THE DISPLAYLINK MONITOR IS WORKING PROPERLY!
I have no idea why. Ask me for whatever you'd like and if I can provide it I will. EDIT: The displaylink useragent is no longer running. Nor is the displaylink manager, but the monitor is up and running in full resolution and fully functional. MBP mid-2012 13" i7 10.14.2b2 Last edited by toastido; 02-20-2018 at 03:13 PM. |

Well this is all surprising it would definitely help to see your debug info in the working case. Can you please follow the instructions in https://support.displaylink.com/know...rticles/755301 and mention that the logs are for me? Do you see any corruption on the internal screen or the screen you have connected to the built-in external port on your MBP? Many thanks, Carlo |
