kernel module that supports usb-c hdmi
#5
@alexandre As long as your hardware has worked once with your Pinebook Pro, then it's the right type. Sounds like it uses an internal convertor from DisplayPort to HDMI.

I can't really help you with the software aspect...


The USB C standard is one of the most bizarre and complicated things in existence. It & the connector tries to be everything to everyone, even when their are competing / conflicting standards. Like the alternate mode video options. First released was DisplayPort, so that is what many USB C alternate video mode devices use. Later came the USB C alternate mode HDMI video, which is NOT compatible with our Pinebook Pros.

As I said, it's complicated.
