Comment 6 for bug 1587749

Hi Christopher,

I'll check if I'm able to update, it's a business notebook where I have
limited access. I have to check what's possible there.

What I tried is the latest stable mainline kernel 4.6.3 which improves
the situation significantly. At least the NB doesn't crash any more
putting it back to the docking station.

The mainline kernel doesn't support Docker (AUFS missing) which makes it
problematic for me.

I keep you posted
