USB hubs

Hi,


I have a very specific question regarding  USB hubs but maybe some has tested this and and knows the answer.

Currently I'm using "ThinkPad Hybrid USB-C" which uses evdi/DisplayLink driver. It works fine but has a annoying issue: redshift is not supported by DisplayLink so it doesn't work on external monitors:

Does any of the docks available in Slimbook store use different drivers and does work with redshift?

Hello,
If any laptop doesn't have native video output through the USB-C port, the docks in the Slimbook store for laptops without native output use the same DisplayLink driver and therefore won't offer that functionality.

Hey @Ethan,

Sorry, I didn't realize this will actually depend on the laptop model. I thought it's just USB-C so all models will be the same...

 I have Evo 14 laptop which supposedly has  "USB-C DP" port. Does this mean "native video output through USB-C"? So would any of the Hubs work without DisplayLink? I understand that the alternative is "DisplayPort Alt Mode", right?

I see https://slimbook.com/en/shop/product/hub-usb-c-2hdmi60-usb-c-to-2-hdmi-converter-2x4k-60hz-1185?category=17#attr= and https://slimbook.com/en/shop/product/docking-gen4-bd193i-10085w-docking-2gen-hub-usb-c-a-hdmi-4k-60hz-pd-85w-gigalan-dongle-1451?category=17#attr=

If it doesn't say it's "DisplayLink" does it mean it works in "DisplayPort Alt Mode"?
