                The Latitude CPi is a PCI device, which adds a 3c905TX to
your device list... I think the docking station just takes the Video Out
port on the laptop and repeats it round the back.. it also adds more USB
ports... and more PS/2 ports...
                I would guess you would want to be very careful with
hotplugging it in linux..
