    Re: Issues connecting Mini PC with Linux Lite 6.6 to LG TV; no HDMI signal on startup

    Good news, it can be done.

    I went down to the basement where my mini pc resides. One has to tinker a little bit with the settings. Not necessary to change anything in BIOS setup. Configuration settings are all in TV and in *buntu Settings > Display

    Boot with both PC nonitor and TV monitor connected, mirrowing

    Boot to TV Monitor (prime)

    Note: When I tried to go to the imgur links I got a 404 not found.
    I will resubmit the before and after screenshots as attachments.

    1. Boot with both PC monitor and TV monitor connected, mirrowing

    2. Boot to TV monitor (prime) with HDMI cable to PC monitor disconnected.

    One other thing I should add, mine uses an AMD APU with integrated AMD graphics.

    ISSUE SOLVED!

    I contacted Beelink support and they suggested to install the latest kernel.

    I installed the latest linux kernel 6.8.6 using "Mainline Kernels" tool. Although there was a warning about missing dependencies, the install finished. After reboot all looked fine on my monitor. I switched the HDMI cable to my TV, restarted the MINI S and there it worked as well. At first only video, but audio worked as well after changing output settings in the audio mixer. The TV display is now also properly identified in my display settings so I can change the resolution as well if need be.
