I have no idea lol I just figured there would be some sort of app or gui for it so you can tweak settings or what not. not gonna lie but the dell documentation for this dock is terrible. for instance, if it's always plugged into your laptop, the battery will always be at 100%; isn't that terrible for your battery?
So yea I just hooked up the dock and in gnome firmware it appears that the proper drivers for the dock are installed, but theres like no gui or anything to configure the thing? is it supposed to be that way? how do people make any changes or configurations to their docks? I see no way on my system to do so
I'm probably misinterpreting this. I have successfully installed the latest bios no problem. its just when you said the bios extracts necessary files, I thought you meant that it installs the proper drivers/firmware for your system
Very interesting. I haven't even tried hooking up the docking station... Just the part in the user guide that states certain drivers or firmware must be installed first kinda deterred me. Maybe I will try hooking it up and seeing what happens. Who knows, maybe the dock will help install those drivers automatically
I was actually reading about maybe using wine? I know nothing about wine other than it allows for windows packages to be downloaded I think... Hmmm so maybe that could work
Thanks, so how would that work? just launch the bootable usb and it takes you to an interface for the windows updates?
