- SAMSUNG 49-inch Odyssey G9 Gaming Monitor:
Monitors max resolution is 5120x1440p and max refresh rate is 120Hz. All resolutions are supported. In the settings it shows as 'Unknown 49"' with a refresh rate selection of 59.98Hz only, it should go up to 120Hz, it shows that on my Pop_OS! Linux desktop. This could be due to the HDMI cable limitations. I will check with other cables and also try the USB-C port using an adapter since the Monitor doesn't have a USB-C monitor input.
- DELL D6000 Universal USB-C/USB-A Dock, Spec Sheet (PDF)
On the back it has 1x Power Input, 1x HDMI, 2x DisplayLink, 1x Ethernet, 2x USB 3.0, 1x Speaker Out and in the front it has 1x USB 3.0, 1x USB 3.0/BC1.2, 1x USB-C/BC1.2, 1x Audio Combo. The cable to the computer is a USB-C along with an adapter for USB-A!
Important: If you DO NOT already have the display link drivers installed for Pop_OS!, you need to install them in order to use the displayLink ports in the back. Download the displayLink drivers.
Note: A nice to have is if you use the USB-C port to connect to the HP Dev One, the dock will charge the HP Dev One.
There is also a version D6000S, which DOES NOT have any audio jacks! Info by raldara on Reddit

- 65W Type C USB AC Charger
This charge is affordable and charges the HP Dev One through it's USB-C port.
Where to buy: Amazon
Note: Additional chargers are great when you travel between different locations, like home and office. Have a charger for each location. Always the worse when you get where you need to go and the charge was forgotten :D

- It is possible to use any linux distribution in place of Pop OS. The only downside being that you can't update the firmware or bios without some additional work.
- The official documentation for System 76 firmware upgrade suggests to use a live-usb of Pop OS to create an environment for updating the firmware.
- For Arch Linux, you can install the
firmware-managerandsystem76-firmwarefrom the AUR.- Once installed, execute
fwupdmgr refresh --forceto identify your device and relevant updates with the service. - From here, you can use the GTK-based GUI in Firmware Manager to update. If you have an issue with checksum authentication, run the commend
fwupdmgr get-updatesfollowed byfwupdmgr install --forceto force the upgrade.
- Once installed, execute
- On boot, the bios may show the
90BSystem Fan Error. This is a known bug that was patched with a later firmware/bios update. If you experience this issue, update the firmware.
