Monitors not working with docking station

Post by twags012 »

I'm using an HP USB dock 5 with the newest Linux mint. The ethernet and power work via the docking station but not the monitors. Any help would be appreciated.

Section 5 of READ: How To Get Help! explains the data we need to be able to help you.

Please give us information about your install by entering this command in a terminal: inxi -Fxxxrz
Click </> from the mini toolbar above the textbox where you type your reply and then place your cursor between the code markers and paste the results of the command between the code markers [code]Results[/code]. This will let us know how Mint sees your hardware.

It would also be helpful to know how you are connecting the dock to the computer and what a HP USB dock 5 actually is.
