Zotac ZBOX PI330 problem with 2 monitors

Post by geefox »

Hello,

tried to test wtware on a new client -> Zotac ZBOX PI330
There is a strange behaviour. The Zotac Box has 2 video outputs - hdmi and display port.

As you stated in an other thread, i should determine the output names for the config.wtc with following line:

Code: Select all

video=intel(u)
display=1024x768
The results are HDMI1 and HDMI2

Code: Select all

[             X] [   13.906252] [    13.905] (II) intel(0): Output HDMI1 using initial mode 1024x768 +0+0
[             X] [   13.906261] [    13.905] (II) intel(0): Output HDMI2 using initial mode 1024x768 +0+0

If I try to edit the config.wtf file to this, the screens stay black

Code: Select all

video=intel(u)
display=1024x768, HDMI
M2_display=1024x768, HDMI2
I've attached the logfile for determining the config and one with the error.

best regards

tried the new build, but same effect.

Code: Select all

[             X] [   14.840940] [    14.840] (II) intel(0): Output HDMI1 connected
[             X] [   14.840950] [    14.840] (II) intel(0): Output HDMI2 connected
adapted config file to above outputs. It looks like the client doesnt recognize the 2nd screen if I specify HDMI and HDMI2

sent you the mail a few minutes ago - sorry for the late reply, but I was on vacation.
as written in the mail - do you have any "supported" or "featured" hardware models for 2x displayport or 1x hdmi /1x displayport - for example something like the zotac zbox?

best regards

Noone writes us "hardware works" when hardware works. Your log was first intel log we received this year where we can not run second display. Others should work. Try another manufacturer, not zodac. With intel graphic.

so, we ordered one HP 260 G2 and one NEO Z83-4 for testing purposes.
I will give you feedback, if one or both are working :D

If both are not working, I think we will send you the hardware for further investigations

Please, try 5.6.24. Perhaps, something changed in newer kernel.

on the Minix device (http://minix.com.hk/en/products/neo-z83-4) we have a similar problem - when i run only the determine config below, the outputs are HDMI1 and DP2

Code: Select all

video=intel(u)
display=1024x768

so i edited the config file to

Code: Select all

video=intel(u)
display=1024x768, HDMI
M2_display=1024x768, DP2
but the second monitor connected over DP2 stays black.

I've attached you both logfiles, first for determining the proper ports, and second one with the final config

and the same problem also for the HP 260 G2 - ive tried it with 5.6.24 and 5.6.23

the determine config listed the HDMI1 and DP1 port - so i used the following config:

Code: Select all

intel=video(u)
display=1024x768, HDMI
M2_display=1024x768, DP
but the second monitor stays black
