[Libdlo] some libdlo and DL-165 questions

[Dan]

Hi Matt,

The GPIOs can only be used on designs that have firmware configured to 
use them. You'll have to contact sales at displaylink.com if you wish to 
build your own firmware - this would also require that you build PCBs.

The DL1x5 is only specced to operate down to 25MHz, so 320x240 is a bit 
low for that - there is no guarantee that the chip would sucessfully 
operate at a frequency as low as that.

Dan.
