HDMI no signal debian

2.5k Views Asked by At

I'm using a lenovo ideapad 320s. I can see that HDMI1 is connected in xrandr but no picture. Is it possible that the hardware is too new? and should I just move to debian testing to see if that works? In xfce4 gui display application I can see that my HDMI display is disabled but can't see how to enable it. Also "xrandr --output HDMI1 --auto" doesnt help.
