Hi all, I am a novice on beaglebone black. I purchased new BBB. But I do not get any display. I tried connecting to LG 22LH20R TV (1366X766p) and HP monitor (1366x768p). On connection, it shows only "problem with HDMI cable. Please check connection". Below is the log book of the processes I tried: I. Process 1) Connect the serial cable to your PC. 2) Launch the terminal emulation SW and select the correct serial port. 3) Connect the serial cable to the serial debug connector on the board. 4) Connect the HDMI cable to the board and your display. 5) Apply power to the board. 6) You should see messages appear on the terminal. 7) When the login prompt appears type root and hit enter. 8) Type export XAUTHORITY=`ls /var/run/gdm/auth-for-root-*/database` and hit enter. 9) Type export DISPLAY=:0.0 and hit enter. 10) Type xrandr --output HDMI-0 --mode 720x480 --rate 60. You can substitute different resolutions and refresh rates if you like. Hit enter. The resolution should change on the display. If you get the message "xrandr: cannot find mode 1920x1080" where the 1920x1080 in this example is the mode you selected, that means that the DRM driver did not select it as an available resolution.
