[RFC] status external display with recent kernels ? #4

Open JulienMasson opened 2 months ago

Hi @sonnyp

Thanks a lot for providing this README, that gives very useful infos. I'm running right now Fedora 40 on my minibook, everything works out-of-box (bluetooth/wifi ok, primary DSI display ok ...). However I cannot use an external display through the USB-C, nothing goes out. I've tried several (fedora) kernel versions: 6.8.7, 6.8.8 and 6.9.0 and that still doesn't work.

Have you been able to use an external monitor with recent kernels ? (whatever distros)

The only working use-case is when I use an ubuntu 24.04 live cd (older kernel), the desktop is displayed on the external monitor but I have only half of the primary panel with glitches ... (known issues).

Thanks
