Display detected but will not enable.

[Awkward]

I have connected displays to my laptop multiple ways I’ve tried using the HDMI on the laptop currently connected through a docking station via USB-C but the same problem arises. Using Kali Linux and when I apt upgrade I get possible missing AMD firmware warnings.

Do you have an amd gpu, if so install the package firmware-amd-graphics and then reboot.

Moved to the Kali sub-forum.

If you look at the photo they have Primary Display turned off

Also Possible missing firmware warning is just that - a warning does not mean much I have a desktop that has been missing AMD firmware for 10 years now and all this time AMD has yet to release it to Linux

It will not let me turn it on. It detects what they are but will not let me click primary display at all and the enable display slider will move but do nothing.

If you click on Mirror displays does it work?

No it lets me click mirror displays when I am on the laptop screen but not if I am on the monitor. Even if I have it enabled it shows disabled.

check if mesa-opencl-icd is installed command

dpkg -l | grep -i "mesa-opencl-icd"

If anything gets returned run the following command - if nothing then no worries

sudo apt remove mesa-opencl-icd
