Usb expansion dock station with arch

Hi guys,
I'm the owner of a dell xps m1330 and i was wondering to buy the kingston exapsion dock station with the video out. It is connected to the laptop using a usb cable.
I know it works with winzozz obviously, but i don't know anything about its support with linux.
Is there any problem to transmit video out through usb to the dock and then to the external video lcd?
thanks in advance

What kind of video card do you have?
Just from my Dell XPS m1530, I have a nvidia card and within "System >> Preferences >> NVIDIA Server Settings", I am able to plug in a VGA cable on the side and have it recognize it almost instantly. I know tried it on a projector but still, it that worked, I would say you should be ok with the monitor part.

USB media docking station won't wake up pc

using the USB media docking station with Toshiba Satellite laptop. If it goes into sleep mode for more than an hour, I need to open the laptop lid in order to wake up the PC. With my old HP laptop, I could simply move my external mouse or press any key on my external keyboard to wake it up

it could be that the speakers that is having the issue. Does your coworker's laptop work with the speakers when plugged directly into the laptop?
I have encountered this problem before, when the cable was actually leaking current back through the cable that connects to the headphone port (3.5 mm jack).

HP FQ834UT USB Universal Docking Station software won't work on my HP laptop with Windows 7 64 bit

I am using Windows 7 and when i went to load software for my docking station, HP FQ834UT USB Universal Docking Station, it said it couldn't use the driver. Is there a software upgrade to allow this driver to work on a HP laptop with Windows 7 64 bit operating system?

I have the same issue - I have it installed on my Windows 7 64-bit machine and although it is running, it doesn't work. I am sitting here in Starbucks, which has a Verizon Wifi hotspot (actually Boingo - which is what Verizon Wi-Fi uses) and the "Connect" box does not appear. I had the same issue at an airport recently. It's one of the worse pieces of software I have had the misfortune to use. When it fails to connect, it causes the Wifi connection to drop (incompatibility with Lenovo Access Connections, maybe). I don't think that Verizon understands the meaning of "QA" and "Software Testing".

Problem using docking station with ipod 5th generation

just bought an ipod touch, 5th generation, with the Lightening connector. Bought an Acoustic solutions docking station with the same small lightening connector but when I dock I can only charge the ipod and not play music through the docking station. Does anyone have same problems playing music with a 5th generation ipod that has the new small lightening connector?...I bumped into someone at Argos who said they are having the same problem not being able to play music from the new iphone 5 that has the lightening connector and even if you use a adaptor to make it 30 pin connector compatable it still doesnt work, any help will be appreciated, thanks

Does Acoustic Solutions say it will work with your model iPod and iOS 7.0.4?
Have you went to their support site?
Sometimes this works
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
Sometimes an iOS updates breaks compatibility and yo will have to wait for iOS update or an update to the dock's firmware.

Thunderbolt Docking Station with 2 Ports...

I'm new to the forums. Please forgive my noob status. I have a Belkin Thunderbolt docking station with 2 Thunderbolt ports (as well as a number of other useful connecting ports). My MacBook Pro has 2 of them also. If I connect my MacBook with TWO cables, one in each port, will this double (or at least increase) the transfer speed to and from my laptop, over and above the use of 1 TB Cable?
Thanks!

That dock is designed for one TB input from your Mac. The other ports on the dock are for additional TB devices to be connected. They are not made for parallel inputs.

I have a music docking station with an 8 pin connector. My i-pod has a 30 pin connector. Is there an adaptor?

No. There are only Lightning to 30-pin adopters

Laptops in docking station with lid closed go to sleep during in-place migration from XP to Windows 7

We have an issue where existing XP laptops are targeted with SCCM 2012 OSD TS for upgrade to Windows 7. The laptops are in a docking station, with the lid closed. The laptops are going to sleep when the OSD is booted in WinPE, just before the
Setup Windows and Configmgr step. I have copied powercfg.exe from a Windows 8.1 machine (both AMD64 and x86 versions) to the MDT Tool package...." and then a step to run:
%DeployRoot%\Scripts\%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%\PowerCfg.exe -setacvalueindex 381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e 4f971e89-eebd-4455-a8de-9e59040e7347 5ca83367-6e45-459f-a27b-476b1d01c936 0
However, the laptops are still sleeping during the Setup Windows and Configmgr step. Any insight to correcting this will be extremely helpful.

Hi
We came across this issue, seems odd that SCCM doesn't suspend the power management in the OS during the TS - (But then again it also seems odd that Windows 7 will go to sleep if you close the lid of a laptop half way through a shutdown, so that when you
lift the lid it wakes only to complete the shutdown, did MS not spot that, or choose to ignore it!?).
These commands should be run soon after the Setup Windows and ConfigMgr step and will disable the device and screen from sleep/hibernating:
Prevent sleep during OSD (Battery power)
cmd.exe /c powercfg -x -standby-timeout-dc 0
Prevent sleep during OSD (AC power)
cmd.exe /c powercfg -x -standby-timeout-ac 0
Prevent monitor off during OSD (Battery power)
cmd.exe /c powercfg -x -monitor-timeout-dc 0
Prevent monitor off during OSD (AC power)
cmd.exe /c powercfg -x -monitor-timeout-ac 0
Prevent hibernate during OSD (Battery power)
cmd.exe /c powercfg -x -hibernate-timeout-dc 0
Prevent hibernate during OSD (AC power)
cmd.exe /c powercfg -x -hibernate-timeout-ac 0
At the end of the TS, you can revert these changes by running the following command to reset the power scheme:
powercfg -restoredefaultschemes
Hope this helps
Thank you. However, we did put similar steps in our Task Sequence right after the "Setup Windows and..." step, but the issue we are having is that the "Sleep" occurs during the "Setup Windows and...." so it never reaches
anything after that step until the lid is opened.

Can I connect my iPhone 3GS to a docking station with a lightening connection

I have a docking station with a lightening connection, can I attach my iPhone 3GS to it?

No.

I want to buy a dock station with speakers and radio wich can support my ipad2 (30 pin connector) and also my iphone 5 (lightning)

I want to buy a dock station with speakers and radio wich can support my ipad2 (30 pin connector) and also my iphone 5 (lightning). I would be glad to get your help.

If you get the 30 pin dock get an Apple genuine adapter the rip-offs often do not work correctly
If you buy a lightning dock a company called Sandberg makes the reverse adapter ,I have one and it works correctly
As tonefox said i got the sandberg from Amazon

Syncing Classic with USB killed docking station for my Nano

I have two libraries in Itunes, one for music and one for books. I use my Nano for music. After I organized a second library for books, I bought a Classic. It uses a USB cable. After my first hookup of the Classic, syncing the book library. The firewire docking station for my Nano no longer will connect that Ipod to Itunes. I can charge, but not sync. Is this a new feature from Apple or does Itune now only recognize Ipod thru the USB port? I can sync the Nano with USB, but I like the docking station

I do not think that your USB docking station is faulty. I use it all the time.
What killed my ipods (resulting in exactly your problem) was the update to firmware 1.1.2. I am on my fifth !! ipod classic (courtesy of technical support/ genius bar at the apple store) as they are not as solid as the older models and
may go wrong quicker, despite much more enhanced functions. Touch wood mine is working fine now.
In the mean time, you could try a hard/factory reset of your ipod:
apple doc: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1339
Interesting may also be "hidden" ipod commands:

Hope you can sort it.

Can i use iphone 4 docking station with iphone 4s?

Please tell me if I purchase any of the docking stations, docking/alarm clocks, speakers, etc for my new iphone 4s..
if the box says they work, or are compatible with iphone 4 - (not 4s)
are they compatible???

Yes, they will work. The two phones have the exact same design (outside of internals)

Reconnecting to dock station with new T530 creates random colored pixels.

Anyone with a T530 that uses the OFFICIAL and real dockstation have issues with random green and pink pixels on their external monitors when they reattach?.
My T530 has the Nvidia optimus 5400 and the HD4000 Intel chipset which apparnently go back and forth between eachother using the BIOS to save power. I was getting REALLY pissed of with the the Intel HD4000 constantly adjusting the brigthness on my screen so I disabled it and went to discrete Nvidia graphics instead and to hell with the power savings.
Anyone else seen issues with video anamolies with the docktation? If I disconnect the DVI cable and reconnect, it goes away. Do I have a bad dock or laptop?

I experience this as well with my T510 on two different docking stations.
I've simply put up with it for for a few years. Tweaking some display settings helped slightly mitigate the issue.
However, my new dock is a Mini Dock Plus, with dual outputs, which allows me some additional testing possibilities. I've been able to confirm that it is a specific cable/display that is causing the issue, not a specific port on the laptop. Furthermore, dropping the resolution from 1920x1080 to 1680x1050 caused the dots to dissapear completely.
The odd part is that I can't seem to reproduce the issue with another device connected to the same cable/display.
My remaining troubleshooting steps are:
* swap out the cable with an alternate (my alternate DVI cable has ferrite cores on each end).
* If this resolves the issue, I'll add my KVM back in the mix, but not use the apparently bad KVM DVI cables. If it doesn't, then I might have to ditch the KVM, and use input switching on my monitor :/
My specs (but to be honest, my googling has turned up similar issues with older thinkpads and ATI graphics, so I don't think it is exactly dependant on the laptop):
* T510
* Nvidia NVS 3100M (with 'nvidia' driver).
* Mini Dock & Mini Dock Plus w/ USB3.0
* Fedora 19

Docking Station With HDMI Out

According to HP customer service, they do not have an HDMI Out supported docking station for their laptops. Does anyone have a working solution to this problem? Does HP have plans to bring one to market?

get a laptop with HDMI out integrated to the system board or just settle for DVI out

Usb game controller compatible with arch

I just rediscovered mupen64 and snes9 and was wondering if anyone could recommend a good usb controller that will run easily with arch. I never got mupen64 working well enough in leopard to warrent buying a controller before. I've been looking at
this:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductRe … 6826127209
or this:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a … 1682612720
any other suggestions/confirmation that either of those works well.

I'm using a Logitech Dual Action Gamepad right now and it works perfectly. I'm not really playing any games on Linux at the moment but I do fancy myself a game programmer so I test the stuff I'm working on with this pad.
I agree with the above posters that "PC" controllers seem to always lack the quality of "console" controllers. I went to a local Gamestop to buy a "wired" Xbox 360 gamepad but they told me they didn't have any and Microsoft isn't making them anymore. So, I bought the Logitech gamepad and I'm pleased with it. It doesn't seem to be of low quality at all. I am glad in a small way that I bought it instead of the Microsoft gamepad because I prefer not to support Microsoft if I can find a suitable alternative. Kind of like why I use only Linux .

Best data transfer thunderbolt USB 3 dock station

Hi
I am crazily searching best super fast data transfer dock station? I was wondering if I could get Thunderbolt Firewie USB 3 USB 2 all together in 1 machine. Just now I saw only Belkin is going to announce it's dock station but it's really late for me. Could anyone advise me MATROX DS1 is good? Any other brand anybody know? Please response!?

I only know of the Belkin and the Matrox - and don't know if either is shipping. The Belkin looks far more attractive to me, but they only know when it will actually ship (last report I heard was 1st quarter 2013).
