All i figured when i had a T23 with dock myself is here:

ion_.28Type_2631.29

However, you can try some diagnostics like using lsusb and lspci to see
if your systems knows about the ports. Alternatively, browse the /proc
interfaces directly at /proc/bus/usb and /proc/ioports. Furthermore, you
can check the output of hal-device or use a graphical tool like
hal-device-manager to check for the presence of the usb ports.

If they aren't recognized, try checking your kernel options, the dock
port has a pci bridge that may need to be particularly supported. But i
wouldn't really know about that since for me it kinda just worked.
