Hello,

  • OpenMandriva Lx version: ROME plasma6.x11 x86_64 build 3522

  • Desktop environment (KDE, LXQT…): KDE?

  • Description of the issue (screenshots if relevant):
    That’s not really an issue I just wanted to submit a bug report but couldn’t find where to do it. So here goes:
    Launching Mandriva as live os from a USB with HDMI cord plugged into laptop just stops at some point. I have two monitors - one is on the laptop and a separate one, connected via HDMI, so when I choose to launch the os as Live OS the screen shows some text and then just stays black without mouse or anything. When I turn off the laptop text comes back but then it shuts down as it should. I have to remove HDMI and then wait untill it boots in and THEN plug it back for two monitors to work.

  • Relevant informations (hardware involved, software version, logs or output…):
    PULSE GL76 gaming laptop
    Hartens MT-27ECM monitor
