[Libdlo] what displaylink device should i buy and what steps are still needed?

> 1b) If possible I would like to buy two UGA-2K-A devices. (for 2048x1152 use)

We obviously can't do this for everyone, but you've been so helpful
about the back and forth here, that we can send you two -- If they
don't solve the problem you're having with the current adapter, just
keep them gratis. Otherwise, it's a purchase.

Two caveats: 1) Plugable advertises our Linux support for "advanced
users only" because there are many problems and limitations on Linux
(especially in graphics), not all of them easy to solve without lots
of digging, configuring, and patching.  And things that work now are
often broken by other Linux updates. So our support isn't always going
to be as successful as this thread, and the Linux experience is not
always going to be as smooth as it is on Windows or Mac  2) I don't
understand where the Sunweit devices are going wrong with EDID, so
there's still a chance our Plugable devices will run afoul of a common
problem.  But based on your logs, Intel datapoint, etc. - I think the
Plugable devices will work.

So if the caveats don't scare you :), just private email me a postal
address and a paypal email to bill (for when/if you find that the
adapters work), and we'll send the devices out.

Again, special case, we can't do this generally - so others please don't ask. :)

Best wishes,
Bernie
