collective experience of the community with the hardware being<br>
considered for purchase.<br>
<br>
I have a Lenovo Y700 laptop, which was purchased less than a year ago.<br>
It runs Linux (Debian Jessie) with backported kernel 4.7.8<br>
(linux-image-4.7.0-0.bpo.1-<wbr>amd64, version 4.7.8-1~bpo8+1).<br>
<br>
I would like to select an USB 3.0 Port Replicator for it and connect two<br>
additional monitors (to have total of three monitors - laptop's own<br>
monitor + two extra ones).<br>
<br>
It was suggested that I'll buy ThinkPad Basic USB 3.0 Dock<br>
(<a href="http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/controller/e/web/LenovoPortal/en_US/catalog.workflow:item.detail?hide_menu_area=true&GroupID=460&Code=4X10A06687" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://shop.lenovo.com/<wbr>SEUILibrary/controller/e/web/<wbr>LenovoPortal/en_US/catalog.<wbr>workflow:item.detail?hide_<wbr>menu_area=true&GroupID=460&<wbr>Code=4X10A06687</a>).<br>
It uses DisplayLink chips, which have Linux support for a while (see:<br>
<a href="https://github.com/AdnanHodzic/displaylink-debian" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/<wbr>AdnanHodzic/displaylink-debian</a><wbr>).<br>
<br>
<br>
This port replicator can drive only one external monitor in addition to<br>
the laptop's own monitor.<br>
<br>
However, the ThinkPad USB 3.0 Dock<br>
(<a href="https://support.lenovo.com/il/en/documents/pd023761" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://support.lenovo.com/<wbr>il/en/documents/pd023761</a>) supports two<br>
external monitors.<br>
<br>
Does anyone have experience with any of the above?<br>
Are there other non-Lenovo USB 3.0 Port Replicators, which work with<br>
Lenovo Y700?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
