Hi
Running Linux Mint 20
Tried installing the automatic 440 driver , manually 450 and now automatic 450 after adding the Ubuntu PPA.
Unfortunately HDMI does not work, it’s not seen by the system.
The driver is installed but X is not using it.
Can you please post a comprehensive install instruction for me?
All the posts are so scattered it’s counterproductive to try them as they are for different setups.
