Given that it's a Dell docking station provided by work, and that it comes with
windows software that Dell expects you to be running, I'm happy that it works at
all, and don't mind working around minor problems.
Still, this conversation reminds me of just about every conversation I've had on
a forum like this one.
I ask, "I would like to do foo"
response, without fully understanding my situation: "No you don't"
Too funny.
So, I asked Claude.AI and it agrees with an earlier response.
"Yes! NetworkManager supports running scripts when interfaces come up (or down)
through dispatcher scripts. How it works NetworkManager calls scripts in
/etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/ when network events occur."
It could be wrong of course, so I will go off and confirm.
And, I don't mind replacing the cable to the switch, but given that it's Dell, I
suspect the problem lies there. Dell is the only company I've ever found to
break something as simple as the interface to a mouse. Seriously, the mouse
worked on windows and not linux. But that was like, 20 years ago.
But I digress.
Cheers,
Mike
