I’m looking for a docking station for my frame.work laptop running Linux. The big ask is I want to be able to hook up to my big monitor with a 3840x2160 resolution (I think it is 8K?).
Has anyone found one that works with that combination of factors?
I’ve read a bunch of posts on the frame.work forums and looked at a bunch of docks on Amazon, but haven’t found one that gives me confidence it’ll work.
So, I took the advice of @steal_your_face and got the caldigit ts3. I had to grab a displayport to hdmi adapter since I don’t have displayport cables.
So far, I have the display working at full 3840x2160. It struggled at first, but eventually Fedora got it working without any changes. I did have to unplug and plug in the usb-c cable. Mouse and Keyboard recognized without issue. Audio through the dock to the screen to speaker is working. Mounted and worked with files on usb drive, no issues. Videos played off the usb drive fine.
So, in short, it works as expected, no extra setup/config required.
