Thanks for the clarification. That bug sounds similar but when dealing with individuals' experiences with different device types, it's best to not merge such bugs. Because we're often surprised when we find they have different root causes.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1574777] Re: tablet connected to monitor shows black screen - Idek Iiyama PL2409HD
Yes 0.6Hz sounds bad but I'm hoping we can ignore it for a couple of reasons: 1. Mir does not use that information to change its behaviour. Only prints it out. Instead Mir will sync to vblank (60Hz or whatever). 1.1. Android drivers on the other hand might use that information, which would be bad but not if #2 is proven... 2. If other M10 owners also see "0.6Hz" but can get external displays to work fine then the 0.6Hz message is benign and is a minor bug that can be ignored. In that case it's _not_ an indication of the speed Mir is trying to render at. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to mir in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574777 Title: tablet connected to monitor shows black screen - Idek Iiyama PL2409HD Status in Canonical System Image: New Status in Mir: New Status in mir package in Ubuntu: New Status in qtmir package in Ubuntu: New Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When connecting my M10 device to my monitor (Idek Iiyama PL2409HD), the monitor shows that there is a signal on hdmi, but the screen stays black.

Well, I suppose the problem is that the monitor simply rejects refreshing at 0,60Hz. According to unity8 it does create a second screen etc., so I suspect the device screen changes to "virtual touchpad", but nothing's displayed on the external screen because of the crazy refresh rate. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to mir in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574777 Title: tablet connected to monitor shows black screen - Idek Iiyama PL2409HD Status in Canonical System Image: Incomplete Status in Mir: Incomplete Status in mir package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in qtmir package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When connecting my M10 device to my monitor (Idek Iiyama PL2409HD), the monitor shows that there is a signal on hdmi, but the screen stays black.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1574777] Re: tablet connected to monitor shows black screen - Idek Iiyama PL2409HD
I take it back. On Mir's android platform the predictive bypass optimization will never delay rendering by more than 10ms at most. So an incorrect EDID won't stop Mir from compositing. Although there might be deeper Android code that is confused by the invalid refresh rate reported by the monitor... Equally possible is a bug in Unity8/QtMir causing the black screen... ** Also affects: qtmir (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: unity8 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags added: multimonitor -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to mir in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574777 Title: tablet connected to monitor shows black screen - Idek Iiyama PL2409HD Status in Canonical System Image: New Status in Mir: New Status in mir package in Ubuntu: New Status in qtmir package in Ubuntu: New Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When connecting my M10 device to my monitor (Idek Iiyama PL2409HD), the monitor shows that there is a signal on hdmi, but the screen stays black.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1574777] Re: tablet connected to monitor shows black screen - Idek Iiyama PL2409HD
Mir does have some code that will throttle proportionally to the advertised refresh rate. That's the 'predictive bypass' optimization. Although even with that you should see a frames every second or two -- something would be on screen. So the monitor reporting (or Mir detecting?) an incorrect frame rate is not the main problem. As shown in comment #6, Mir did detect the external monitor but it was only connected for 26 seconds. The log appears to show Mir notifying Unity8 of this successfully so I'm not sure who is to blame for the image remaining black. One thing you can test right now is the cable itself. The biggest problem we have with external monitors on the phablet is faulty display cables. They are very common. So if you can, please test the cable on a different device, or test a different cable. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to mir in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574777 Title: tablet connected to monitor shows black screen - Idek Iiyama PL2409HD Status in Canonical System Image: New Status in Mir: New Status in mir package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When connecting my M10 device to my monitor (Idek Iiyama PL2409HD), the monitor shows that there is a signal on hdmi, but the screen stays black.
