From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Same. Minisforum mini PC HX90 on Ryzen integrated graphics. She's on Kernel 6.8.7-300
I managed to get it on kernel 5.15 and replicate the issue. I had to find its USB-C charger to keep it on while I power down my monitor otherwise it would hard shutdown it. So, connecting the monitor back, the weirdest thing just happened. The display rearranged, but didn't use the new monitor. Instead, the lock screen got resized and I could see my session behind it without logging in (!).
I've got this on dmesg:
[119330.829398] amdgpu 0000:63:00.0: [drm] *ERROR* no VCPI for [MST PORT:00000000e7b3da3d] found in mst state 000000005563f49a
journalctl gives more details:
I got it to switch monitors using Cinammon's Display app, but it will not take two displays at the same time.
I would totally try a kernel update, even if it meant uxing zen kernel. Older kernels is one of the reasons why I stay away from Mint and Zorin.
Weirdest thing is I could swear it didn’t use to happen on Mint 21 until I both upgraded to 21.2 and switched to the edge low latency kernel. It doesn’t bother me much, and everything else just works, plus I’m addicted to
aptitude
so I need a Debian based distro.Aptitude is the one thing Debian based distros have that beat the rest.
