Can't install driver on Ubuntu 17.10

I managed to run DL with XPS 15 9560 and D6000 dock. These are my kernel options:

Code:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash intel_iommu=off pcie_port_pm=off acpi_backlight=none acpi_osi=Linux acpi_osi=! acpi_osi=\"Windows 2009\""

I'm using Intel GPU but I have nvidia set up with 387.12 driver and X Server Settings GPU set to Intel (Power Saving Mode).

I also have /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf with following contens:

Code:

Section "Device"
  Identifier "Intel Graphics"
  Driver "Intel"
  Option "AccelMethod" "sna"
  Option "TearFree" "false"
  Option "TripleBuffer" "true"
  Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"
  Option "ExaNoComposite" "false"
  Option "Tiling" "true"
  Option "Pageflip" "true"
  Option "Backlight" "intel_backlight"
  BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection

I have 2 external monitors attached (i plug in the USB-C after logging in) and it seems to work. Though I still have random disconnects from time to time. I have however noticed that they happen less frequently when laptop is on AC power from normal adapterand dock attached via USB3 to the laptop.
