Title:
  Dock not detected (Dell Latitude E6420 ; PR03X)

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  My Dell E6420 is plugged to a Dell PR03X dock, but I cannot seem to
  find a corresponding device under /sys or /proc/acpi. Notably, there
  is no /sys/devices/platform/dock.0

  As a result, it seems that no kernel event is fired on (un)docking,
  thus making it quite difficult to automatically adjust monitor/display
  settings accordingly.

  I am really using the TuxOnIce variant of the mentioned kernel
  version, but the problem occurs in the official version as well.

  Ubuntu was installed on this laptop while it was not plugged to the
  dock, using the Alternate (text based) installer.
