No HDMI signal from new Manjaro Community Edition phone dock

[wibble]

It was fixed by the most recent update!

I've had my PinePhone for only three days and happily the update enabled an image on my HDMI monitor for the first time. However, the image is just wallpaper. How can I display something useful on it?

Hey I've just received my Manjaro Community edition a couple a few days ago, and I'm unable to get my external monitor to work via the supplied adapter/dongle.

What is this update?!!? I need to update, but am uncertain how.

Cheers

Given the pace of software development, whatever they install at the factory will be out of date by the time you get the phone. It's really only there as a starter. See the wiki for a generalized install method, and for the list of OS options and links to their respective instructions, wikis, FAQs etc. I'd recommend Megous' multi-boot image on an SD card as an easy way to give most of them a try - they won't be quite the latest versions, and the kernel won't be quite as stock so there might be some minor behaviour differences, but it's an easy way to find out which ones you want to try installing properly.
