Hello [member=458]m654321[/member]
it required VGA cable from laptop to vga of Samsung tv.
TV auto tunes
Fix desktop is -
all settings for laptop and tv to be the same except, auto selected refresh rates left.
Resolution had to be changed for TV in LL display settings to match laptop.
Exact details of experimenting like so -
Started up Linux Lite 3.2 Live dvd
Once at desktop
Connected VGA cable from laptop VGA to VGA of Samsung
Screen of tv goes black and produces message "auto-calibrating..., PC"
Desktop appears.
Desktop not working /showing the LL panel on tv, as before no fix.
Display settings altered to match (except refresh rate auto detected and left alone) as follows -
Laptop
ticked - use this display
not ticked - primary
not ticked - mirror
Resolution 1360x768
Refresh rate 59.9 Hz
not ticked rotation
not ticked reflection
Samsung 40 inch
ticked - use this display
not ticked primary
not ticked mirror
Resolution 1360x768
Refresh rate 60 Hz
not ticked reflection
not ticked rotation.
That is the solution required only to use VGA cable and ports, and match ticks, and resolution for laptop and tv.
TV it was used Samsung 40 inches same as previously, I thought she said it was 32, my dizzy moment.
Laptop used same as last time Lenovo T420s.
LL 3.2 64bit dvd same disc as last time.
I read VGA it will not carry audio ?
I have not tried it yet, ran out of time.
I know some ways to solve audio if that is issue.
Still to try I will check at my TV it is different model Samsung when she comes at weekend.
Still to try she told them to send her a box, it goes VGA converting audio and video lines to HDMI in TV, when it arrives we will test if can work make Laptop work at HDMI port of TV then try video and audio.
Currently is not possible at HDMI of this Samsung tv to get panel of LL, and Ubuntu.
Also still to try they sending a DVI to hdmi cable see if it can work on HDMI of tv.
Also still to try she has a docking station coming, see if it PnP for resolution and which cabling.
I did not have time to try Ubuntu live usb today, also I made Live usb of Ubuntu Mate to try but not had time yet.
I will try these at my tv at weekend and if time on Sunday try them also at hers.
Does it help on your tv/laptops ?
