Thanks for the tip. I have a random “Pluggable” brand docking station that works fine with Windows but not my Linux laptop, neither with Zorin or PopOS. I get nothing from either monitor and can’t get DisplayLink to properly install on either OS.
I will look into Dell. Do you know of an easy way to tell if DisplayLink is required? I’m looking at this one and don’t see it mentioned:

It’s a pain in the ass with Dell. The one I have on my desk right now is a
K20A001, which works great, but I know the newer Dx000 series that our ICT department bought all use DisplayLink. However those seem to be explicitly mentioned on the spec sheet, so there’s hope that if it just says “DisplayPort” then no DisplayLink is involved. Maybe double-check google just to make sure, if it’s DisplayLink there should be people complaining about it.
