Public bug reported: I am trying to use the HP EliteDisplay S140u external USB display, therefore I have installed DisplayLink softwares. Now, when the display is connected, the Computer quickly runs into 100% CPU load and crashes. This only happens when the display is connected. It is enough to open a browser, start the file explorer and try to open a pdf file.
