Have you tried plugging it in the other way round? Shouldn’t make any difference but this once solved a similar issue for me.

Well, I bought the cable last week, so can I assume that it is suitable? How can I tell? It is marked as a high speed HDMi cable.


To add, I don't think there is a wiring pin-out difference between HDMI v1 and v2, I just think there is better shielding / signal to noise on v2 cables.

"High Speed" _should_ be OK on a 4K TV.

Your problem might be something specific to MX Linux then, which I don't have any experience with.

Stating the bleeding obvious here,
          but have you tried all of the input selections on your TVs
          remote control?

      Have you tried the presentation options on your laptop - I
        think the function key with 4 or F4 does it? (Should have an
        icon on the physical key)
