Two graphic cards and no HDMI out

Two graphic cards and no HDMI out

My laptop Lenovo Ideapad L340-15IRH Gaming does not show up on the HDMI out using Linux Mint, and MX Linux. I like to work with both monitors together, to enlarge desktop space. This issue is bothering me, since I updated from Mint 19.2 ? to 19.3 ? Im rather experienced with Linux, but these kind of problems are out of my skills. Who can help ?

Thanks in advance

Hans

Below the system information from both Mint and MX

I will place / have placed this issue on the fora : Github : https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee/issues/1079 , https://github.com/linuxmint/muffin/issues/567 Mint : https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=348068 : !!! Issue fixed !!! with summary and pictures MX : https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?f=107&t=64241 Lenovo : https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Other-Linux-Discussions/Two-graphic-cards-and-no-HDMI-out/m-p/5077071. Their proposal to check with a life usb Fedora workstation works : Showing monitor out on hdmi, straight out of the box. NVidia : to do

On the MX Forum, there is already good support. Last year, there was good github support too. I hope to find it on the other fora too. Please join all together to get this issue with two graphical cards in one laptop finally solved.

Do I need to install Bumblebee ? https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee/issues/1069 does not provide enough info for me.
