Thread: Blank hdmi external display outside of X


hi there.

it's more hardware problem ubuntu problem, think, maybe there workaround.

i'm using hp dv7-1145ef laptop hdmi output. i'm using external display (hp 2275w) dvi input. both linked hdmi/dvi cable.

i configured x , dual screen works fine. but, it's working under x.

if switch console tty external screen goes sleep mode (not same if unplug it). seems gets no signal laptop.

also, external screen stays blank during booting process. gets signal when gdm fired up.

maybe that's normal (it's first external screen plugged on laptop). maybe it's due hdmi interface.

there way configure can see boot process (because of time let laptop closed papers on ).

best regards.
