Working status for Ubuntu
Hi,
I want to report a set-up that's working for me:
What is working:
What is not working:
xrandr works fine; arandr works pretty well, but sometimes it takes some fidgeting with xrandr (turning things off and on again) to get everything set up. So, there's some flakeyness, but by and large it works reliably enough for day-to-day use. Enough so, I have one dock at work, one dock at home, and move between them daily. I have scripts set up to arrange displays; unfortunately, this can't be fully automated because of the lack of fully unique IDs for the monitors (UUIDs, although there may be a way to query this I haven't yet discovered). I'm a little sad that the third external monitor doesn't work reliably, but I most miss the ability to rotate displays. Still, overall I'm happy with the set-up, so thanks DisplayLink for the Linux support. |

Can you freely re-arrange your monitors and switch off your laptop monitor?
I have the monitors working but often cannot re-arrange my monitors or switch off my laptop monitor without the system crashing, which is incredibly annoying when moving between my office and home where the monitors are always arranged incorrectly upon restart. |

can't install driver for D3100
I have made new installation of ubuntu 15.10 and can't install the Displaylink driver for D3100. Will there soon be an update of the driver?

I have the same issue with the 3rd monitor (2nd USB monitor). There is an error that pops up saying could not load configuration or something like that. Seems to work if I enable again using Display menu or xrandr.
