Public bug reported:

I am trying to use the HP EliteDisplay S140u USB Display on my Lenovo
T430s, therefore I have installed DisplayLink softwares. However, there
are some issues occuring now.

First of all, the cursor is flickering on the Built-In laptop screen,
when the other screen is connected. The flickering mainly occurs, when
the cursor is hovering over the program header or the upper ubuntu
status bar (black bar on top).

Second, the CPU rises to 100% quite quickly and the Computer crashes
completely. It's enough to open a browser, then a file explorer, and
trying to open a pdf from the file explorer. This only happens when the
display is connected.

Third, to activate the usb screen, I have to plug it in, then go to
settings, activate the screen, unplug and plug it in again.

I have seen this bug has been reported many times, I myself have easily
found 3 reports from several versions of Ubuntu, I would highly
appreciate if this could finally be fixed.
