Share monitor screen to tv

I'm running Gemini PLasma. A few times when trying to accomplish something else, I saw a popup come up with options to share my monitor screen. I would close the popup... it was getting in the way. Today I plugged in my HDMI cable that goes to the TV. The TV is set to receive a signal. When I had linuxmint XFCE on this laptop, I used it frequently. But now that I'm ready... there's no popup. I don't know what the program was called, and I can't find it.

So how can I do this, with this OS?

In my laptop, I press F4 and the popup menu appears. You can also find this setting in System settings > Display & monitor

Re: Share monitor screen to tv

That didn't work for me. But just now doing another search I found the key combo to bring up the popup: the meta key +p
Or the Windows key +p.

This brings up the popup but only the close button works. None of the other configurations work. :-(

On XFCE I installed Lxrandr, a GUI front-end for Xrandr. They have some Debian Bulleye packages listed here:
https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/lxrandr

The page says it's a LXDE monitor configuration tool, but I'm hoping one of them will work for Plasma. If you think one of these packages could work, could you point me to the right one?

You mean this popup, right?

It does work for me here. How are you trying to "share" the screen?  This works if there's a second display connected either via HDMI or VGA, no via Wi-Fi a la chomecast, but wired. If you're trying to cast the screen via W-FI to a smart display, this won't work. You'll need gnome-network-displays To install, read here https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.gn … rkDisplays and here https://blog.paultelles.com/2020/03/how … plays.html

No idea sorry, you might try them, and if they do work, good, if they don't, remove them.

Re: Share monitor screen to tv

Yes, that's the popup I was talking about. I have my smart TV plugged into the laptop by HDMI cable. This worked fine with Linuxmint XFCE but not Gemini. It's the same TV and same cable, and same laptop. I'll see what kind of luck I have with gnome-network-displays .

Connect your smart TV with the HDMI cable, launch konsole and run this command

xrandr

output should be something like this

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1366 x 768, maximum 8192 x 8192
LVDS connected primary 1366x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 194mm
   1366x768      59.99*+  39.94  
   1280x720      59.97  
   1152x768      59.95  
   1024x768      59.95  
   800x600       59.96  
   848x480       59.94  
   720x480       59.94  
   640x480       59.94  
HDMI-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
VGA-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

In your case, HDMI-0 should say "connected", mine's disconnected now.

Looks like the laptop doesn't see the TV.

   640x480       59.94  

The cable is plugged in, and the TV is on. So how do I make the laptop see the TV?

Run these commands, 1 at a time:

xrandr

while the smart TV and the HDMI cable are disconnected, copy the output and save it to a file. Next, run

sudo udevadm monitor

and then plug and unplug the HDMI cable, copy the output and save it to a file. Lastly, run

cat /sys/class/drm/card0/*HDMI*/status

copy the output and save it to a file, then post the output from all commands.

Re: Share monitor screen to tv

With the HDMI cable unplugged and the TV turned off, this is the data I collected. The sudo udevadm monitor command had to be stopped manually.

stevem@steve-linux:~$ cat /sys/class/drm/card0/*HDMI*/status
cat: '/sys/class/drm/card0/*HDMI*/status': No such file or directory
stevem@steve-linux:~$ 

Yes, udev monitor had to be stopped manually with Ctrl + c Launch konsole and run this, please

grep . /sys/class/drm/*/status

and

ls /sys/class/drm

and post the output from both commands here.

There's only the one HDMI port on this old laptop. The other end is still plugged into HDMI 1 (ARC) -- just as it was when I was using XFCE on the laptop.

Launch konsole and run this

xrandr --listproviders

and post the output here, please. Also, it'd be helpful if you could share the output of this too

inxi -SMCGFx

I don't think the desktop has anything to do with this, but something else.

Re: Share monitor screen to tv

Ok. Let's try this: connect the TV via the HDMI cable, launch konsole and run this

xrandr --output HDMI-A-1 --auto

looks like xrandr isn't picking the HDMI display up, but the LVDS only, hopefully, this will try and do that.

We will perform some testing with the secondary display port and possibly report here, if we find something related.

Ok. At this point, I suggest you try and check whether the cable/port is working fine, you could download a different distro's iso file, or even use Q4OS', write the .iso to a USB, and boot the live OS, then try connecting your smart TV, and if it works, then something's wrong with Debian's/Q4OS' settings in Plasma, and if it doesn't, then you should probably try/get a new HDMI cable, if after confirming that a new cable didn't make any difference, then something might be wrong with the HDMI port. In short, discarding possible reasons(hardware or software related)that explain why it is not working.

Re: Share monitor screen to tv

I think I replaced XFCE with Plasma four days ago. The HDMI was working fine. The connection is tight on the TV, and there is only one HDMI cable port on this laptop. I have Linuxmint on a live USB -- I can give that a try.

Edit a little later:

I plugged in the Linuxmint live USB. It only took about 5 seconds and I had the laptop screen displaying on the TV. It must be Plasma that has a problem.

You mean you installed XFCE in Q4OS? Or was it another distro? The xrandr command runs at a system level, it doesn't have to do anything with Plasma specifically. I think something might be wrong with Debian's/Q4OS' settings in Plasma, some missing configuration file ... I don't know. It works just fine for me, tho.

Re: Share monitor screen to tv

The laptop had Linuxmint XFCE on it. This is what I was using a few days ago. Then I replaced it with Q4IS Gemini, and it no longer works. To test it today, I used a Linux mint, live USB, to login to the laptop with Gemini on it. Linux mint live USB had no problem with sharing the screen to the TV. That's why I think it must be Debian's/Q4OS that's the problem
