Thunderbolt docking station and RHEL 7.3

Latest response

Good evening

I have some issues with a thunderbolt docking station [HP ZBook Dock with Thunderbolt 3] (http://www8.hp.com/us/en/workstations/zbook-dock.html) and RHEL 7.3.
The problems are different: the worst is system hang (!). Furthermore every 2 /3 seconds the secondary monitor connected on docking turning itself off and on, and the usb keyboard occasionally refuse to work. Peripherals like the docking network adapter or external usb disks apparently work the correct way. Using fedora 25 the situation improves significantly and docking becomes usable. With ms windows no problem.

On the manufacturer's site I did not find anything except: "As of this edition, the docking station has not been tested for compatibility with Linux distributions. New information becomes available over time. " [Linux Hardware Matrix for HP Workstations] (http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c00060684.pdf)

There is some way to use this device with RHEL7.3? Is there a guide ( or suggestions ) to thunderbolt troubleshooting?

Thanks in advance
