I'd also note that there are a *lot* of these docks in use with MacBooks where I work, and driver compatibility is holding up security updates. They don't work in the current release of OS X. It isn't clear when or if that'll be resolved, or if we'll have to replace them all. Generally, my advice remains: Avoid anything with DisplayLink. It's not worth the hassle. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/IET7HDF2R67Z6BSYLGEQV6MGTDUUK6JI/

I've never had a problem with a dock, they're usually pretty simple. The one thing you need to watch out for is if there is a separate video card in the dock, but that is quite rare. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/LKYZMW4BXXOXEM2C5ONLVLV22CRH5GUN/
