--- Comment #20 from Robert Strube <rstrube@gmail.com> ---
One more thing I thought of.  Would it help if I posted my dmesg log with the
GTX 1060 connected as an eGPU?

As I mentioned previously this card *is* working with nouveau.  I haven't
tested with the proprietary nvidia drivers.

I'd imagine that PCI resource issues you pointed out are still there, so I'm
surprised that the nvidia card is able to work.  Perhaps they have some hacks
in their drivers to work around issues like this?

I also have a friend that has an older RX 290, should I give that a shot as
well? It might take me a while to get a hold of that card.

I don't doubt that this is most likely a BIOS bug, but I've noticed people on
the windows side of the fence getting the XPS 9575 working with eGPUs, and
presumably they have the same BIOS as me.
