I tried Piotr's setup and it worked only sometimes: - Ubuntu 18.10 default install - Kernel 4.18.10 - Dell Precision 5530 (similar XPS 15 9570)
The Xorg freezes with udev spamming following message when i remove the dock: KERNEL[1058.705239] change /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0 (drm) UDEV [1058.705254] change /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0 (drm) KERNEL[1058.705267] change /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0 (drm) UDEV [1058.705280] change /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0 (drm) KERNEL[1058.705291] change /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0 (drm) UDEV [1058.705305] change /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0 (drm) KERNEL[1058.705317] change /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0 (drm) UDEV [1058.705330] change /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0 (drm) System can only be rescued by being very patient and putting it into sleep (takes a while...). Afterwards it recovers. Additionally the USB ports do never work after ones disconnected. In Manjaro Gnome or Cinnamon the uduv issue ocurres everytime :( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1752165 Title: TB16 dock freezes X on hotplug when used with external displays To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dell-sputnik/+bug/1752165/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
