First of all, let me tell you I am fond of Ubuntu and linux, using it every day since 4-5 years now. I love it, i keep loving it but sometimes it is just frustrating to see how much effort it takes for the simplest things.
I bought an Asus MB168B+ USB monitor which i spent the whole day trying to make it work, without any success.
I googled and googled, installed the drivers, followed guides, tried others solutions. Nothing
The best result I got so far is having a split screen with horrible colors and a distorted resolution:
Here some data and facts:
When I connect the screen while running, the whole X session crashes, sending me back to the login screen, and the USB screen stays off
If i disconnect and reconnect the usb nothing happens Another century's episode english patch.
The 'working' screen i got from the picture above was the result of putting a config file for the X server,
I'm not familiar with X server configurations, but my guess is that it has something to do with that. For sure, it doesnt work out of the box after installing the drivers.
I'd be glad to receive some suggestions after a good working day wasted on this.
Thank you

Just a few days ago, displaylink released a new driver that works much better, seemingly. Right off for me, on 16.04, with one caveat: it was unable to start the service it needs to run because I was on UEFI 'safeboot', and the failure was very silent.

Going into bios and turning off safeboot fixed it for me. There's also mokutils, though that didn't work for me.
Finally, there is a nice package on github for debian, though they hadn't updated with the new driver, so it wasn't quite working for me--just nearly. I messaged the repo maintainer, however, and by the next morning he had updated it. (Later edit: next computer I had, I used it, and it worked great for me.)
I believe distro detection is now resolved in the most recent version.
