I'm trying to connect an external monitor to my laptop via a DisplayLink USB adapter. When I plug in the USB cable, the screen turns bright green. This apparently indicates that the udflib displaylink driver is installed, and has detected the USB driver (according to http://libdlo.freedesktop.org/wiki/displaylink-mod).
All of the instructions I've read on how to configure displaylink with ubuntu involve manually editing the xorg.conf file, but it seems like Ubuntu 11.04 with Unity handles xorg.conf differently. From what I can tell, it either does not use it or places it in a different location.
Has anyone been able to get a displaylink-powered monitor working on 11.04?
