Even while machine is locked in dock, I don't see aditional devices at
lspci. Is there some additional steps I need to do?

..should probably be write-only. It seems to only return errors on

Is there a way to physicaly remove my machine from dock? echo 0 >
power should do it, right? Well, it does not :-).
