I had the bright (?) idea of connecting the USB2VGA2 dongle to one of the ports on the USBVGADOCK to see what appears in the logs.

The message device v0711 p0900 is not supported appears, and then sisusb wakes up and finds it.

Looking back, the message device v0711 p1000 appears earlier in the log on a sensible-looking port number.

Putting 2 and 2 together , I wonder if v0711 p0900 is a unique identifier for the USB2VGA2 and sisusb is configured to respond to that? If so, perhaps sisusb could be configured also to respond to v0711 p1000, which might be a unique identifier for the newer product?

I hope this might offer a way forward: if it's complete garbage, then I'm sorry .
