Hi James, When I plug my laptop's (Toshiba R630, Intel i3 with integrated on-die graphics) HDMI port into a TV, the display manager in Ubuntu is able to detect it and, after a click or two, mirror or extended-desktop to it. So I would say the answer is... it already does. It's more likely that your distribution doesn't have the tools you need to do what you want, or the driver for your graphics device needs some work :) And I don't think this problem falls into the remit of linux-media; graphics drivers are dealt with elsewhere, aren't they? -- Steve Kerrison MEng Hons. http://www.stevekerrison.com/ On Tue, 2011-10-25 at 10:09 +0100, James Courtier-Dutton wrote: > Hi, > > Does anyone know when X will support display hotplug? > I have a PC connected via HDMI to a TV. > Unless I turn the TV on first, I have to reboot the PC before it > displays anything on the HDMI TV. > > Kind Regards > > James > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
