Pinephone USB-C Docking Bar (Amazing !!)

[Peter Gamma]

I've ordered my "PinePhone KDE edition" together with the USB-C docking bar option and it simply doesn't work!
The funny thing is that it works fine plugged it into my Desktop PC.

So I ordered another docking bar (Anker PowerExpand 6-in-1) at Amazon and this one works fine now.
I use it with mouse + keyboard connected by USB and the monitor connected by HDMI.
In addition there is a PowerUSB-Plug to load the phone in parallell ( <- not perfect but usable).

Maybe this will help one or the other "PinePhone-warrior" having the same problem

Thanks, AndrewBlackmiller

Andrew confirmed that the:

(Anker PowerExpand 6-in-1)

works with PinePhone KDE edition.

We can confirm that Gembird USB Typ-C

does not work with PostmarketOS. And we can confirm that the Aliexpress multi adapter does not work either with PostmarketOS:

There where other reports that a similar device with multi function does not work either.

The PINEPHONE USB-C Docking Bar «works with postmarketOS Community Edition and newer out-of-the-box»:

The  PINEPHONE USB-C Docking Bar has a PINE 64 logo on it.

Is it a Pine64 open source developement?

We saw a very similar model from a swedish shop with no Pine64 logo on it, but only in the swedish shop and nowhere else.
