I would be willing to spend some brain power to help improve this driver as well.

The stupid thing is that Synaptics benefits from a popular open source driver that is compatible with their hardware, spending tokens on this is an investment in the DisplayLink platform!

If Synaptics embraced open source they would have some respect and authority over the main line branch, instead now FireBurn has the respect and authority and Synaptics has our distrust and disdain.
