      Hi,

      I have a laptop with 2 external displays.
      f.lux works flawlessly on both the built in laptop display and on the first external display, connected via the laptops built in hdmi port.
      As my laptop lacks a second video out port I am using an external USB 3.0 to HDMI DisplayLink Adapter by StarTech.com.

      f.lux seems to correctly recognize the second display according to the information below, but unfortunately it still fails to dim down the later:
