No Video Out on PBP on all major distros
#1
Sad reality, but video out on pinebook pro was regressed on all major distros

this includes default factory os manjaro

Found some info that kernel patches needed to allow video out were dropped since were hard to maintain



I guess with years interest for PBP dropped, as well as support for basic functionality from developers.

For example, cannot believe that in 2019 there was mrfixit debian build with all the working functionality that you could easily flash to sd card, while now 4 years later you cannot connect pbp to external monitor or tv


Any suggestions how to make it work again would be appreciated
