Bug ID: 376909
Summary: SDD segfaults when connecting DisplayLink USB monitor
Product: frameworks-solid
Version: unspecified
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: general

dmesg output after connecting monitor
DisplayLink used to work on my machine with Neon, But after upgrade of packages
in December, connecting monitor shows KDE splash screen or a tty or sometimes
it's login screen for a few seconds and after that it turns to blank screen and
I can't do anything with the system, even switch to tty (Ctrl+Alt+F1) to try to
diagnose it.
The only thing that still works is Power button. Pressing it displays normal
KDE splash screen for turning off and computer turns off in a few seconds.
If a monitor is connected during system boot, this happens in a few seconds
after the login screen is shown.
This could be an issue with DisplayLink driver, but it works on other 16.04
distributions.
I attached dmesg output captured a few seconds after described crash by
scheduling it before connecting monitor.
Monitor model is ASUSTEK MB169B+
I am using the most recent DisplayLink driver version 1.3.52
and KDE neon user with all packages upgraded.
This is really frustrating since this left me without my 2nd monitor when
traveling and it used to just work.
