[gentoo-laptop] USB 3.0 dock with linux support

[A.H.]

Hi everybody,

in a few days I want to buy a new laptop without a "real" docking port.
(Lenovo E330)

My question is:
Is there any external USB 3.0 dock which offers some USB, sound and 
graphic ports (2x) with linux support on the market? I know some of 
these docks (i.g., the Lenovo dock; see 
http://blog.lenovo.com/products/dock-is-launched ), but all of them use 
the same DisplayLink 3xxx chipset.

The problem is that there is no linux support for these chips ( 
http://displaylink.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1748 ) and as a result I 
don't want to buy one of them.

Or is there any alternative to a USB dock? I will use my laptop at my 
desk and I have to work with it when I'm not at home. I even thought 
about installing Windows on it to use the DisplayLink drivers and put my 
gentoo into a virtual machine running on top of it. But this should only 
be the very last option...

Thank you in advance!
