I want to use my external monitor's resolution fully (2560x1440) with a USB display adapter for my laptop. I have one with Windows drivers, are there any adapter with linux / Ubuntu drivers that can give me full resolution?
I am thinking of something like my current USB to DisplayPort adapter.
HDMI only gives 1920x1200 (am using arandr to achieve this easily), and my laptop haven't got displayport. But I know that the graphic card can deliver 2560x1440 digitally or through an USB adapter.

Right now, on Ubuntu 14.04, my Accell DisplayLink compatible adapter just works. It didn't work on 13.10.

It seems a little slow on effects, I think that is because of being USB 2, and no acceleration? Anyway I got rid of the effects and works ok
