Public bug reported:

I'm running a clean install of Xubuntu 16.04 on a Thinkpad X230 and a
docking station.

Whenever the login screen comes up -- after booting, by locking the
screen, waking up from standby -- as long as I'm plugged into the
docking station, the laptop display and all connected monitors just show
a blinking underscore and start flickering. It seems like they are
endlessly switching resolutions.

I can immediately resolve the issue for the moment by releasing the
laptop from the dock -- the greeter pops up and I can login normally.
After login, everything works as expected, including multiple monitors
etc.

I understand that all relevant logs are added to this bug automatically,
let me know if anything's missing!
