Fixed for me!
 

I followed "Joachim Martillo"s solution and unfortunately it did not help me.

But then I followed "Wunsz"s solution and It Worked!

Thanks!

p.s.
I have 17.10 running on an ASUS laptop (intel i7 and Nvidia GTX 950M) using Asus MB168B monitor

The upgrade made the kernel (vmlinuz-4.10.0-37-generic) in which I installed the displaylink driver to be the 3rd in the Grub Advanced Menu. The ordering was automatically generated. For grub to boot this kernel automatically, I put the following directive in /etc/default/grub.

GRUB_DEFAULT="1>2"

The indices of the menus all start at 0.

Thus this default says:

1. select the 2nd line in the top menu (Advanced),

2. descend into the submenu, and then

3. select the 3rd line in the submenu, which is the kernel to which I added the displaylink driver.

I have yet to find a passage in the grub manual that discusses this usage of GRUB_DEFAULT.

Update

I found where in the manual navigating submenus with GRUB_DEFAULT is almost discussed: 15.1.10 default.

Working Solution
 

After a few days of struggling, I managed to find a solution on Ubuntu 17.10. Hope this works for everyone having problems with the D6000 dock. Below format is markdown (to lazy to convert it)

## Instructions for fixing the blanking monitor on dock issue within Ubuntu.
**Make sure to reboot after making the changes!**

#### Disable USB AutoSuspend
* `sudo gedit /etc/default/tlp` and change the below value from `1` to `0`

```
USB_AUTOSUSPEND=0
```

* `sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/01-usb-dock.rules`. This will create a new file.

```
