This also did not prove a solution to my problem as there is still no second framebuffer device besides the hdmi one. evdi (displaylink open source driver module).Snd 51908 5 snd_bcm2835,snd_timer,snd_pcmĪs can be seen in the lsmod output all needed modules are loaded: As a result, a PC can drive up to five MB168B+ monitors at the same time, regardless of its own graphics capability it just needs sufficient USB ports. The MB168B features ASUS EzLink technology that offloads graphics processing from the PC to dedicated hardware in the monitor. So i blacklisted the old udlfb and enabled the new udl drivers. The MB168B+ features ASUS EzLink technology that offloads graphics processing from the PC to dedicated hardware in the monitor. Since it didn't work after the driver installation i looked further and saw that some people said that the "old" udlfb driver was the problem and that one should use the new udl drivers. With the patched kernel I was able to install the drivers without any problems.
