External displays do not work on deck with bazzite
I have setup bazzite on my 512GB LCD steam deck and everything beed working except I can't connect it to an external display.
I tried the same dock I used on steamos (it was a laptop dock) and the usb ports are reconized but not the HDMI ports.
went into the desktop and ran
kscreen-doctor -o and it only showed the built in display
it is not detecting any external displaysSolution:Jump to solution
Hmm works now
I transferred my old nvme to the new deck and on the first boot
But after updating and rebooting it worked
Did notice there was a kernel update to 6.10 on bazzite stable ...

just connected the dock to my laptop and the HDMI ports work there so the dock is still working ....
This a displaylink dock?
no HDMI
HDMI is the out,but the in
just tried a jsaux dock I had for the downstairs tv same thing
Does this use displaylink over USB?
Hmm, odd
no niether dock doesn't have displaylink
I'll see if I can reproduce it but we have a lot of people using docks without issue
Not sure what that could be
all i can think of is a defect with the hardware but if that where the case i don't think the usb ports would work
I have an official dock and it turned out to be a hardware issue with the dock I was using.
hmm not sure if ths related but the jasux dock shows up as a
Bus 001 Device 120: ID 2109:2824 VIA Labs, Inc. USB2.0 Hub with just a realted ethernet adapter
in lsusb
i tried both of my docks with a laptop it works there
so if its a hardware issue it would be on the deck i think
fudge I guess im going to have to re install steamos to see if it works there. and i don't think the steamos installer supports dual booting?It will only do a full reflash of the entire drive
fwiw this is a dmesg of me unplugin and pluging the jasux dock seems fine?

the
Bus 001 Device 120: ID 2109:2824 VIA Labs, Inc. USB2.0 Hub is the jasux dock
i dont think reinstalling steamos will fix this its looking like a hw defect on the deck. tried several live usb of several distros and can't get the hdmi port working
ok this getts even stranger on garuda I got the displayport of my jasux working but not the HDMI .... again the HDMI works on my laptop so for some reason my deck no longer likes HDMI 😕
not to mention I cant get the displayport working on bazzite so no idea what garuda doing diffrently here other than a newer kernel
can't tell but that's an HDMI dock
so, working on my end w/ latest update
