Bug Description
At first my environment:
rainer@
Description: Ubuntu 11.10
Release: 11.10
rainer@

xserver-
I tried to get the displaylink running as a second screen. After a long expirience I get it working. The problem was that i got: ioctl FBIOGET_
rainer@
ioctl FBIOGET_
rainer@
You should known that /dev/dl0 is an valid alias which i produced using /etc/udev/
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}
here is the output of ls /dev :
rainer@
/dev/dl0
rainer@
/dev/fb0 /dev/fb1
rainer@
/dev/dl0 is an alias of /dev/fb0
if i do fbset for the real displaylink adapter the output is:
rainer@
mode "1440x900-60"
# D: 106.508 MHz, H: 55.939 kHz, V: 59.892 Hz

The ioctl FBIOGET_VSCREENINFO should work on the alias too. I need the alias because dependent on my attachment the displalinkadapter has different /dev/fbn. To prevent that i used the alias.
