my external displayport monitor does not work
On a fresh installation of BlendOS V4, none of the desktop environments detect my external Displayport monitor. How to fix this?

It needed two aur packages, evdi and displaylink. Followed by enabling the displaylink systemd service

Try googling your issue to see if others have it
And check that it’s not your monitor
It's not my monitor because Ubuntu 22.04 worked perfectly on it
Are you using KDE

I tried everything
All desktop environments
Ok. I might have found a possible cause
I am running my monitor by connecting through a docking station

Is there a way to declaratively specify in /system.yaml which services you want enabled at startup?
yes,
servicessystem.yaml - blendOS
system.yaml config reference
Yes. Figured it out. Thank you
Nice distro
Some papercuts, but so far getting by okay
