XPS 15 9520 using CentOS 7.4+ with Thunderbolt Dock WD19TBS
Hi,
I am planning to purchase the XPS 15 9520 having the Graphics Card: NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3050, 4 GB GDDR6, 40 W. I would like to use it with Thunderbolt Dock WD19TBS. The compatibility is shown for Win11. There is no information for CentOS. Is it possible to have issues using it with that dock station for multiple displays?
Regards,

Since Dell doesn't support CentOS -- you should contact the CentOS community to see if anyone has successfully used the configuration you're planning. The answer is yes, there is the potential for compatibility issues, and realize you're on your own with the CentOS community for support. Dell will only support the operating system it ships when you purchase the notebook.
Also of note, CentOS is a discontinued OS at this point -- 7.4 is long end of life, as is CentOS as a distributed OS (unless you're planning on CentOS stream, which does still see updates).
