Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
xserver-xorg-video-intel : Depends: xorg-video-abi-15
Depends: xserver-xorg-core (>= 2:1.14.99.902)
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Since Nvidia drivers are not supported by DisplayLink, need to use the Intel drivers.
Assistance appreciated.

Looks like I got it working by running the following command:
$ glxinfo | grep OpenGL
OpenGL vendor string: Intel Open Source Technology Center
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) Skylake Halo GT2

Jumped the gun here.
The Nvidia driver does not work any more - get a black screen after reboot when choosing Nvidia instead of Intel.
Also there are fast video flashes on 2 way Skype video calls.
A workaround for Skype is to add the following section to /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
Section "Extensions" Option "XVideo" "Disable" EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics" Driver "intel" Option "AccelMethod" "sna" Option "TearFree" "true" Option "DRI" "true" EndSection
