I tried with this problem for 2 years already. LOL, today, I install Ubuntu for I have to resolve it or I will back to stupid
Windows 7.
First, I have 3 monitors. My graphic card is support dual ( ATI Radeon ), so I have no problem on extend those multi monitor on VGA and DVI.
The 3rd monitor is Displaylink
USB.
After installed everything required, when I reboot, the displaylink monitor show "Ubuntu ...." like logo / loading screen.
I go to System Display , Detect monitor, it only show my 1st and 2nd, NO 3RD Displaylink.
I can move my mouse between those 1st & 2nd, but the 3rd is only show the Ubuntu Screen.
I press Ctrl+Alt+1, then screen switch to Displaylink
USB 3RD monitor, but its "Terminal" not a desktop.
Then I press Ctrl+Alt+7 , the screen switch back to my 1st, 2nd, and the displaylink 3rd is witch back to Logo / Ubuntu again.
This is my /etc/X11/xorg.conf :
