Mayve been after an update. I can faintly see the cursor and any windows I switch over to the displaylink.

Here is a debug report. Unless I'm mistaken it used to be 5 providers, not 6. I manually set the providers 1-5 to provider 0, jik that would work. I uninstalled, reboot and reinstalled. Still garbly.

Here is a debug report.
