Hi,
I am new to Linux and trying to connect my Lenovo L580 (no thunderbolt) to my Thinkpad ThunderBolt3 dock. Nothing works when plugged in. I’ve understood that these docks should be backwards-compatible (USB-C should work).

I’ve tried both usb-c ports. Hdmi, USBs etc connected to the dock works fine when connected directly to PC. I read that installing Intel-drivers is unnecessary but tried, as well as installing the displaylink-driver for leap 15.2 (didnt help).
Any help is much appreciated!
