I guess the manufacturer calls it a dock even though the computer does not actually dock into it, it attaches via a Thunderbolt 3 cable which I guess is different than USB-C . Sorry for the mistake.
This entry in the lspci: 40:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation I210 Gigabit Network Connection [8086:1533] (rev 03) is indeed over the dock (it disappears when the dock is unplugged; the other Ethernet controller remains so I guess it is the one in the laptop itself). When I ran the info reporting program the only connections I had to the dock were an ethernet cable to the dock's ethernet port and an external monitor from a USB-C port on the dock to the displayport out on the monitor. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1853061 Title: Connection to USB-C hub frequently drops when charging over it Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I am running Ubuntu 19.10 on a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Extreme. I have a CalDigit TS3 Plus USB-C hub connected to one of the laptop's USB-C/Thunderbolt ports. The laptop supports charging over USB-C. When I try to charge from the hub over USB-C, Ubuntu seems to frequently "drop" the connection to the hub and loses connection to the stuff attached to the hub (e.g., an external monitor connected to the hub by USB-C to displayport, an ethernet connection, and USB devices). After a few seconds, the computer reconnects to these devices. I disabled TLP but the problem persists. When I have the laptop's power adapter attached in addition to the USB-C hub, the problem does not appear and the computer does not lose connection to the peripherals.
