Public bug reported:
Dell XPS-15, Ubuntu 16.04, Caldigit Hub.
When I plug this hub on my windows partition, the ethernet connection is
detected fine and I can use it to access my local network and Internet.
Not under Ubuntu.
Ubuntu does detect the USB-C hub since it uses it to power my laptop and
plug 2 additional monitors. The network also works with Ubuntu if I use
the Wifi. But ethernet works only with Windows.
This seems specific to this hub as I have tried a USB-C ethernet adapter
that worked with Ubuntu in the past.
I don't have a ethernet port on the laptop to do more tests, the XPS15
only has a usb-c port.
** Affects: linux (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Incomplete
