A Phoronix reader pointed out this forum post where a DisplayLink representative claims that USB 3.0 Linux support is in the works and should see the fruit of that work in Q3. "DisplayLink have been working on extending our OS support beyond Windows and Mac, and have recently introduced support for Android. Now we have our first support for Android, we are pleased to announce that we will be extending our support for Linux, beyond USB 2.0 devices, with the first public preview for USB 3.0 devices planned in Q3 this year."
DisplayLink USB 3.0 devices have been available since 2011 but so far only their USB 2.0 adapters had been supported on Linux.
More details as they become available.
