Feb 25, 2023 at 16:48 | comment | added | iFreilicht | Awesome, this actually worked! I also found out why; DisplayPort 1.2 was turned on. This enables MST, which is only supported by some very specific Macs, and the newer models are not on that list. If a device does not support MST, the screen stays blank. That's why all DisplayPort monitors have this option turned off by default, and why they give you a big fat warning when you turn it on. I would post more details in an answer, but don't have enough rep for that. | |
