I used a thunderbolt dock (OWC) with an Emmulex sfp+ card and a Sonnet sfp+ card. Those docks worked well before updating my old laptop image. After doing an update and installing KDE (without boltd, boltd bricked some docks) I was able to connect to the docks I used before but not any new docks. Did something change that pulls from a whitelist or a history of thunderbolt docks and pci express devices that got connected? I'd love to know if there is a way to temporarily "disable" the security or permanantly do that. I was able to install tbtadmin but also pci express hotplug does not seem to work well on this laptop.
Sorry, but I have no idea who to assign this bug to. If you could narrow it down to some specific package(s) that are malfunctioning, that would help with assignment.
please reopen as soon as you have more details for us.
