I managed to use Firefox 5.0 now without the Use Hardware Acceleration feature, but if possible, I would like to re-enable it in the future. The click/drag problem occurs with the Magic Trackpad AND any other HID device. I am using a Logitech MX500. If necessary I can screen capture the problem for you and put it on Youtube or so.

Thanks for your help!

Thanks, for the debug information. Unfortunately we are still unable to reproduce the click/drag problem. It seems that your system acts as the drag lock option is active for your mouse. Does the problem disappear if you unplug the DisplayLink monitor? Does the issue happens if you reboot the machine without plugging in the DisplayLink monitor? Thanks

I installed 1.7b2 on a machine running a GM of Lion. Immediately, after the restart I noticed the following things.

1. If I have autologin disabled then the system boots to the login screen but doesn't display any users. Basically, all I see is the gray wallpaper.

2. Once I enable autologin, the restart is gets me into my desktop. From there the dock is non-editable. For instance, try to drag an app into the dock. You cannot. You have to launch the app, right click on the icon in the dock, go to options, keep in dock. You also cannot remove an app, by dragging it out of the dock.

3. The system takes a lot longer to shut down and reboot.

Once I remove the driver, the system functions normally. The display hooked up to the displaylink adapter does work, but these performance issues make it hard to keep it installed and in use.

Ways to reproduce it:
MacBook Pro (fall 09), fresh Lion GM install, fresh beta2 driver install. Without attaching the monitor nor attaching a USB mouse, after the restart of os x the magic track pad has said bugged functionality. Very strange.

Thanks.

Same experience with Higher Graphics Performance turned on, as without it turned on. Dock becomes uneditable, and I cannot see the login screen when I turn off automatic login. I just see the grey wall paper.

To get back to my system, I once again had to boot into safe mode and uninstall the driver.

No major problems so far. Even the long-standing copy and paste is fixed.

But:

1. Still no energy-savings on Display Link monitor

2. Renders useless the "Play Speed" function of "Movist" media player App on Mac.

the options are still there you just can't see them, try clicking in the center of the screen and typing your password then hit enter. if you have more then one account it'll be to the left of the center of the screen vertically centered. you can also look up where the icons usually are and click where you think it would be and type your password in.

Sorry you had to go through all that but at least you didn't erase your whole SSD/operating disk to put in a fresh install of Lion. If only I knew about these bugs sooner.

I have a bit of a major bug with my Kensington adaptor. I am running Lion GM on my iMac 27". I have a 27" Cinema display attached and a 24" Samsung monitor running in rotated 90 degree mode. When I sleep and attempt to resume, the primary iMac display is blank. The DisplayLink display and 27" Cinema Display both work. Any ideas?

No rotation option in my LG W2442 with 1.7b2 after installing Lion. Reboot didn't solve anything. I have a 27" iMac and this monitor is useless to me unless I can rotate it. Any advice?

+1 for the smoothness issues. Both my laptop display and the monitor that connected through the mini display port work great, but through the DisplayLink, noting is smooth. The mouse is quite jerky, animations are terribly jerky. Just an observation.
