Yeah I was not really into these laptop specific things. Honestly it's a massive machine that I only use as a desktop. You would find sleep not working properly etc. I disabled all of this. Shutdown is my way.
If you find some improvements in this area let me know. The guides for this topic are crazy complicated.
Not sure how that dock is constructed but it has to be a similar solution as DisplayLink based ones. Other words interface via USB and a chip converting to HDMI signal.
If that is how it works then the only struggle is make that thunderbolt port work as USB-C.
I'll try to investigate that.
The original ThinkPad dock no chance as far as I read. It is due to the construction that routes the external port through Nvidia discrete GPU which won't work as I read in the various guides.
