Mac users have been taking advantage of DisplayLink for the last couple of years. The technology allows users to connect multiple monitors--as well as docking stations and projectors--to a single system via USB only; no need for any fancy-pants graphics cards.
Today, DisplayLink announced it is planning to bring its technology to Linux. The company released a library that enables Linux developers to create X Servers, drivers, and other Linux applications, which will be compatible with products that utilize the DisplayLink technology. According to Displaylink, the library is provided under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2 ( LGPL ), which enables software to be ported by the community to cover the widest possible range of processors, platforms, and applications.
