Hi,
my work Laptop (Dell Vostro with Fedora 40) is connected via usb-c to either a Dell docking station (3 monitor setup incl. laptop display) or at home to an Eizo EV2795 monitor with usb-c docking support.
This setup works fairly well - except some occasional hiccups where the system looses the display connection and reconnects moments later. Sometimes gnome crashes at the same time, but mostly not. Looking at the journal indicates issues with usb connectivity as it logs the detection of usb-devices shortly after/during the disconnect/reconnect cycle. Using new high quality usb-c cables changed nothing.
