after using a lenovo usb c dock and having a lot of display problems. its a displaylink chip. and random disconnects (doesn’t happen on my windows work laptop). i was wondering what are the best supported docks for linux?

in my current situation the dock has the displays, ethernet, keyboard/mouse and audio connected to it so i can easily switch between my work laptop and my desktop pc.

    I have to use Windows because of the docking station problems with Lenovo…

    The only feasible workaround for me was to use the HDMI out for the display and the station for the rest but that defeats the purpose of said station.

      I did get it somewhat working by switching to Ubuntu in combination with the Ubuntu display link driver. But it’s never stable
