After most recent kernel update (4.15.0-44-generic) my tablet freezes whenever plugged into docking station
I performed the most recent kernel update on my Dell 5290 2-in-1 earlier today. But moments after I plug it into its docking station, the screen flickers, blanks and freezes. The only item left on the screen is the mouse pointer, and it is stuck.
If I leave the tablet not plugged in, it runs just fine. It seems to be the docking station that triggers the freeze.
That said, I can log into the tablet via ssh even with the screen frozen. So the system is still running. But if I try to reboot the tablet via the reboot command, nothing appears to happen. sudo reboot -f will reboot the system, while sudo reboot will not.
Any ideas where I should start looking to identify this problem?

What happens if you hold Shift while booting and within GRUB select the old kernel from before you updated?

It took me a while, but I finally got it to boot to 4.15.0-43-generic. This kernel is not freezing. I'll run it all night to be sure, but it's survived much longer than 4.15.0-44-generic has ever lasted on my tablet.

Although it's possibly unrelated, I've been having problems with my desktop computer and this new kernel, as well. Getting strange wifi cut-outs. It's telling me my printer isn't accepting jobs. And it's starting to refuse basic file operations -- getting errors with the copy operation.
