Display not detected in Minnowboard Turbot #47

Closed mrajaraghavan closed 7 years ago

mrajaraghavan commented 7 years ago

Trying to connect a VGA Monitor with Minnow Board Turbot using Micro-HDMI to VGA Converter but display is not getting detected. I have installed Ubuntu 16.04 LTS in the board.

I have also observed that during booting if I connect a display with hdmi port using direct HDMI to micro-HDMI cable, the system is identifying the display make & resolution and working fine. After booting if I change the cable with micro-HDMI to VGA converter, the VGA monitor is also working fine (but in Settings->Display its not detecting any display even though i pressed Detect Display option). If I reboot the system with same setup, the display is not turning up also.

I have ascertain the said problem by changing micro-HDMI to VGA converter also and still the same above situation persist.

Kindly help me in this regard.

There is a known issue on the MinnowBoard Max regarding driving the HDMI port with symptoms exactly as you describe, Will you confirm you are using a Turbot versus a MAX board, please? At first glance, they look the same with things like the heat sink maybe being different color.

Thanks, |\/|ark.

Hello @mrajaraghavan . Touching base on this one. Did you resolve the issue or move to an HDMI monitor? I'd like to know if the thread should stay open.
