Initially did the upgrade to 18.04 and it took about an hour but is running fine. No issues so far but will post back once I use it more.

Re: KDE Neon 20180925 released
Ok, the new version runs fine on the Dell E6400 ATG but the backlit keyboard doesnt work(works fine with Kubuntu 18.04) and doesnt work with the E series dock. Id try a fresh install of Neon to see if it works but honestly I have Kubuntu and other distros that work fine in all respects like Rosa R10.
Overall Kubuntu 18.04 has been more stable and works with all hardware. Neon 18.04 also ran fine on my Dell 7010 USFF but I did notice the speed didnt seem quite as good as it was with the old version and slower than Kubuntu 18.04/Rosa R10.
Give it a try but for me its something I can use with my systems outside of dock but doesnt offer me enough to supplant other distros I use.

Since I don't have an active installation, I will be reinstalling fresh. Will be going on my E6440. Couple more minutes until the download is done.

Whats the difference betwenn it and Kubuntu which works fine. Not going to lose sleep over it but its a bit strange, especially since you said it works with your laptop/dock. Havent tried it on the E5410s which Im using at work presently. Upgrade nor fresh install worked for me.

Yup, I have it installed now on the E6440, and it works absolutely 100% with my docking station. In fact, I booted it live on the dock, installed, and rebooted into the installation, all on the dock.
