Problem with KVM using DL-6950 Docking Station

DJB · 02-06-2021, 04:27 AM

Just a quick update for anyone else who is struggling with this DL-6950 problem: Try setting the KVM switch focus to the port with the docking station (Port 1 in my case), disconnect the power to the KVM switch for 10 seconds, and then connect it back. This seems to temporarily solve the monitor disconnect/window resizing/repositioning problem, although rebooting the laptop appears to make the problem return. The DL-6950 does not handle DDC/EDID over DisplayPort very well.
