I have raspberry 400. My HDMI monitor became faulty so i replaced it with a new VGA monitor. I have bought a mini hdmi to hdmi to vga cable/adapter. There is no problem with the EOS xfce displaying except i have “No HDMI signal” wandering all over the place since the booting starts.
Can you advise what line i should add in the config.txt to make the “No HDMI signal” to go away from the monitor.
Just wondering - does this new monitor have an HDMI connector too? Why the need for a VGA adaptor? Maybe I’m confused… you could let us know what the make and model of the monitor are…
There is no HDMI port in the monitor. I have the same feeling that the message is coming from the monitor. However, something other than that is forcing the monitor to show HDMI signal.
All the internet gurus, seems to recommend editing the config.txt file
On the other hand it opens a whole new world!!
I have learned more about computing and how operating systems work over the last two months than in my whole life.
actually, i am struck up with my minecraft addicted 10YO son. when he cant play in his RP, he overtakes my Intel NUC and watches experts playing minecraft youtube video.
If i am not intervening soon enough, he may go to his Android addiction.
If only i could channelize his energy as a python game maker.
I don’t think it is a software issue, it is a hardware issue. I don’t know how to fix this.
Can you try with another cable? Maybe get a micro HDMI to VGA cable?
i made some changes to the config.txt now i am getting no signal and the XFCE is still fully functional. i will swap my HDMI monitor with my son’s when everything fails. will poke around with the config.txt for some more time and keep you posted. thanks for your kind support, EOS team.
i have seen it, but did not put a lot of head on it. i think the situation now compels me to check it. as of now, i think it all lies in the correct hdmi_group and hdmi_mode keys.
anyways thanks for forcing me to see it once again.
