First off, any help or suggestions offered are greatly appreciated.
This is my first post here so if there is a Code function, please forgive me for not using it as I can’t see anywhere to select it.
Installed this to USB drive: Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-33-1.2
System: Laptop: Lenovo Legion AMD 4800H with Radeon graphics and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 GPU
Memory: System 16GB GTX 1650 4GB
Installed the above distro on 32GB USB drive to test
After booting, everything I tested seems to work except the monitors, including the Intel WiFi AX200 that gives some other distros fits
I have a larger external Samsung monitor I wish to use for general day to day use connected by high speed HDMI cable. Windows and MacOS sees and uses the monitor just fine.
In Settings the Displays tab sees the Samsung monitor, but selecting it results in a black screen and the setting reverting.
Choosing single or mirror exhibits the same behavior
I am at a loss as to how to proceed, so any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
I really want to move this box to Linux and get rid of that awful Windows crap but I need to see it all working before flushing windows.
The following is the output for the system. As you can see, both the card and the monitor are recognized but the monitor does not work properly.
The large monitor appears to be an extension of the small one as the mouse will move to it, however the monitor only displays the top 1/3 of the desktop theme and if chosen in Mirror or Single monitor, it displays nothing.
