When I look at the link to download the windows driver
(http://thinkgeek.com/files/lilliput_monitor_drivers/displaylink_windows.exe)
it seems this device uses a displaylink chipset. I already used such
devices on my arm linux machine without any problem.

In case you didn't find it, see http://displaylink.org -->
http://libdlo.freedesktop.org/wiki/.

And, if you are using Angstrom
http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/repo/?pkgname=libdlo-bin.

Please share a YouTube video of it running!

kernel-module-udlfb + xf86-video-displaylink did the trick for me.
