Re: [LUG] HDMI Woes again

 
I'd personally start with a different HDMI cable, and poking about in BIOS to ensure that the correct Graphics option is used at the basic level.

Failing that, I'd then find another monitor which is HDMI capable, try each cable, current then new.

On the topic of monitors, make sure you only have HDMI cable plugged in, don't have other connectors DVI-* / D-Pin etc dangling off the back.

Then test your monitors, check if the same issue occurs with a completely different PC.

Since buying the system, have you stress tested the PC to ensure that everything is working correctly?

Does your motherboard have Jumper switches and are they all set correctly / present.

Have you tried running the PC with minimal devices plugged in, Mobo, CPU, RAM, SSD, Monitor / Keyboard & mouse to eliminate issues with other devices?

Hi All

I read that the Kaby Lake processor works well under Kernel 4.10. I upgraded to Ubuntu 17.10 as it is using to 4.11.10 in the hope that this would auto fix my HDMI woes. As you can guess it didn't. Having said that the way 17.10 works with settings etc has changed and I cannot figure how to tell it to use HDMI.

So off I go on this journey once again.

Any thoughts please?

Thanks

Rich
