HDMI
With the stock Debian as delivered, I have tried two different USB-C to HDMI adapters and found that whilst they both work to produce a picture on an external monitor (via an HDMI 4K KVM unit) one totally prevented the Pinebook Pro from shutting down completely - all the screens went blank but the power LED stayed on until the USB-C lead was unplugged. Sort of 99% off. A few seconds after plug removal the power light went out.
The good one was a "CHOETECH HUB-H04" from Amazon (UK) which simply described it as "thunderbolt compatible".

The "bad one" was a "Pro-Elec" PSG91603 described as display port alternate cable from CPC UK

Neither seem to offer anything higher than Full HD resolution (1920x1080) even though my monitor is QHD?
