DisplayPort Out question

Yesterday I got another software update. I decided to try a USB-C to USB-C cable from the PPP to the Nexdock 360 lapdock and it worked for a little while. Again when I opened a program it filled the screen with no way to close the program without disconnecting the cable. When I plugged it back in it would not work again.
However, I had installed Evolution, and the other day when the Nexdock 360 was working for a few minutes,, that program switched from full screen to a window just by clicking on the top bar. I was able to resize it and open another program, and close Evolution. That doesn't seem to work for many other programs so far. I haven't been able to get it to work consistently yet.
Sorry for rambling, just trying to be clear.

Ah, good info.  After reading this I decided to plug mine in again and try with a few different distros.  One thing I did notice is that my keyboard, mouse and sound are all working even though the display never does.  That might be a good sign. 

I am going to do a little reading about getting DP Alt Mode working on Linux.  Hopefully it is just software and not a hardware limitation.
