hi, so i tried the video=i915(f) command - this is the outcome:
HP 260 G2: only 1 screen available, second one isnt recognized
Minix Device: both screens are black
Zotac ZBOX: both screens are black

Loggggggg.....

zotac: 2 monitors, one hdmi and one display port - configuration dialog with (entf) is working on display port, after exit both screens stay black
minix: 2 monitors, one hdmi and one mini displayport - configuration dialog with (entf) is working on hdmi, after exit both screens stay black

going to try the hp 260 g2 tomorrow and upload the logfile

Please, try this build with video=i915(f)

http://wtware.com/testing/201801180640.zip

tested it with the minix device, logfile is attached

What about such config?

video=i915(f)
display=1024x768,hdmi

Minix Device: its working on both screens with following config, and also the portrait mode is working
ZBOX:: with the zbox only 1 monitor (HDMI2) is working, the second one stays black - I've attached you the logfile Going to try this on the HP device aswell, but with that device there is an error after installing to hdd - can't boot - I'll provide you the logfile later that day.

Update:
On the HP device, if I try to boot from USB with 5.6.25, I'm receiving an error.
I've uploaded the picture

Update 2: Tried it with 5.6.24, and there is no error

best,

For ZBOX:

video=i915(f)
display=1024x768,HDMI
M2_display=1024x768,HDMI2

tried it with following, but 2nd screen stays black:

so, now its also running on HP260 with version 5.6.24 (5.6.25 kernel error posted above)

the hdmi display is running alone - with 2 monitors, both stay black and i receive following error (log)

I tried it with

With display=1024x768,HDMI2 and M2_display=1024x768,HDMI ZBOX log looks good. Device sees both displays. Show me the log with the problem. In "log.txt" there is no windows connection. No reason for terminal to display something on screen.
Try HP260 with:
And update HP's BIOS. Kernel microcode should live here.

so, its working with your config mentioned above - but only with version 5.6.24 - I'm not able to upgrade bios, tried it with bios recovery from usb device - but its not working.
Altough its good thats not working, cause couple users have problem with the latest bios release from hp -> https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-B ... 157/page/2

going to try it on the zbox after lunch

so, also the zbox is working - it was a bad dvi cable, which worked.
thank you very much

again another problem - hopefully we can also fix this issue:

the portrait mode with video=i915(f) isn't working as expected.
in log1 file you can see the display parameter with portrait mode, both screens stay black
in log2 file you can see the M2_display parameter with portrait mode, both screens are working, but the picture isn't in proper place
I've attached you a photo of this issue aswell

best,

the portrait mode with video=any-driver(f) isn't working as expected. Only video=..(U).
