I'm running a clean install of Xubuntu 17.04 on a Thinkpad X230 and a docking station.

Whenever the login screen comes up -- after booting, by locking the screen, waking up from standby -- as long as I'm plugged into the docking station, the laptop display and all connected monitors just show a blinking underscore and start flickering. It seems like they are endlessly switching resolutions.

I can immediately resolve the issue for the moment by releasing the laptop from the dock -- the greeter pops up and I can login normally. After login, everything works as expected, including multiple monitors etc.

I understand that all relevant logs are added to this bug automatically, let me know if anything's missing!
