Re: [LUG] HDMI

 
Frustrating day yesterday. Work went on too long and then I had to go to a bbq! Turned the computer on and it worked fine. Sound and vision returned. I'll see what happens tonight when I turn on again. I think I will be looking at ensuring it doesn't keep repeating itself.Â

Thanks for the link above it will be useful in trying to ensure it stays fine.

Thanks for all the help.

No sshd yet.

Hi All

I installed Ubuntu on a new computer and am running into some problems. The monitor I am using is connected to the computer via HDMI. Sound was working fine and then when the computer went to sleep, the sound stopped working. I did various things to get it going including installing pavucontrol and although I could see the hdmi option it wouldn't stay selected. I decided to reboot to see if the sound would come back. However, on reboot it didn't recognise the hdmi at all!

Now I cannot use the computer because I cannot see a monitor at all. I will attempt to get hold of a VGA cable tomorrow. But once in has anybody got any suggestions to help please?

Thanks

Rich

I get the problem where, after it goes to sleep the sound wont work - it seems to occur on machines with Pulse Audio and the only cure I found is not letting it go to sleep! Not had the HDMI problem tho.
