Thinkpad T480 docking on Fedora 36

November 7, 2022

Bought a dock for my Thinkpad. Fedora 36 works with the dock, I’m sure the others do too. You just have to disable a few things or change a few settings.

  • to use the DisplayPort connections, you’ll have to set your display settings in Fedora to 59.94Hz. At least for my monitors. I was using HDMI before and it was on 60Hz. Kept messing up the dual display one one of the monitors (Asus Tuf Gaming VG289)
  • in Gnome-Tweaks, you’ll need to disable “suspend when laptop lid is shut”. I keep my laptop screen down and only use my monitors. Docking and undocking makes it more smooth with this setting.
