Monitors-periodically-turn-off on Ubuntu 18.04
Dual boot Dell laptop with Dell 6000 dock; The attached LG monitors periodically turn off on Ubuntu; attached output from DL Support tool.
The monitors turn off after 30 minutes or so, even when Power and Privacy settings indicate they should never go to sleep. Had this issue with an upgraded version of Ubuntu 16 -> 18. Now also occuring with clean install of 18.04. Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the DisplayLink driver with no success. Unplugging the dock from the laptop does not cause the laptop to recognise the change; in Display settings it still shows the monitors as connected. Dock only seems to recognise the monitors from a clean boot. |

I recently upgraded from Xubuntu 17.10 to 18.04 and have started seeing something similar. My system is a Dell Latitude 5580 that is connected to a Dell D6000 docking station via USB-C. I posted the following in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/bi...x/+bug/1763594 but I don't know for sure if that bug is what is going on here.

I'm experiencing the same problem
I'm on a Dell Inspiron 15, and I'm experiencing the same problem. Random blackouts on the monitors. Unplugging and plugging the dock back solves the problem but it is annoying.
Any solutions? |
