F. Known Issues
===============

This is a DisplayLink driver release that supports 2D acceleration on Mac OS X platforms. This software has some limitations:

    * No 3D (OpenGL) acceleration - some features of Mac OS X applications that require hardware OpenGL
      acceleration, such as Keynote presentations and iPhoto slideshows, will not function properly.

    * Colour calibration does not work with DisplayLink enabled displays on Mac OS X versions prior to 10.6.2

Note: Applications that require Quartz\OpenGL\hardware acceleration support will likely exhibit problems with this version of DisplayLink software. Some problems can be avoided by making sure the DisplayLink display is not set to be the main display (the display with the menu bar) If an application refuses to launch when a DisplayLink display is present, try to disconnect all the DisplayLink displays, then launch it and then reconnect the displays.
