I have a D620, and things still don't seem to be working right for me. I
installed the kernel that you mentioned in Comment #17, and here's what
happened:
1. I did "dmesg -c dmesg_pre_620.log".
2. I selected Undock from the Docker (Gnome) applet.
3. The light in the dock's button that releases the laptop went on. The
external monitor remained active, as did the external keyboard and mouse (both
USB).
4. A few seconds later, I got two notifications at the lower right of my
screen, the lower one said that my laptop was undocked, and the upper one said
that undocking failed.
5. Another few seconds later, my external monitor went dark, and the external
mouse and keyboard stopped working. The light in the dock's button that
releases the laptop had gone out.
6. I did "dmesg -c dmesg_failed_620.log".
7. I re-did steps 2 and 3 above, but did not wait for the notifications in 4.
I just pushed the button to release the laptop and removed the laptop.
8. I did "dmesg -c dmesg_removed_620.log".
I hope some of this helps. Let me know if you'd like more information or
experimentation. By the way, a couple more observations:
- It occurs to me that I'm not sure what undocking should look like. Was it
successful at the end of step 3?
- I'm running the A08 version of the BIOS; it looks like there's an A10.
- My dock is a Dell PR01X, more of a port extender than a full dock.
I'll attach the log files that I mentioned above.
