minus-squarezelifcam@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up11·edit-27 months ago Linux has very little to do with DisplayPort. My Windows PCs use DisplayPort. What? I’m not sure what you’re on about. Of course DP is not a Linux specific technology. Not sure what that has to do with my comment specifically. I’m talking about people who would like to use the full capabilities of their HDMI TVs ( while using AMD), when using Linux. My understanding is the adapters do not provide all the features of the HDMI 2.1 spec. Is that no longer the case?
