KDE Neon should be supported out of box, are you saying this is not the case?

Could you please give me the output of lsb_release -ics | sed '$!s/$/ /' | tr -d '\n'

I've got the official DisplayLink driver working on KDE Neon.

I had a problem with multiple display devices showing up as modesetting in the output from xrandr --listproviders

The fix was to create /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-intel.conf with the following content:

Section "Device"
        Identifier "Intel"
        Driver "intel"
#       Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"
#       Option "VSync" "false"
EndSection

I just made change which will automatically disable PageFlip for modesetting depending on which version of Xorg server is detected.

Currently changes have been pushed as part of separate branch, which if proved to be working as expected I'll merge with master.

git pull && git checkout modesetting && sudo ./displaylink-debian.sh

Please test these changes and let me know if everything works as expected. Thanks!

Also, could you tell me what does running lsb_release -ics | sed '$!s/$/ /' | tr -d '\n' return for KDE Neon.

In couple of latest commits, I've added feature which will disable pageflip for modesetting which should resolve your problem.

Closing the issue, if problem persists after running re-install with latest changes please free to re-open this issue.
