Does HDMI 2.0 even have enough bandwidth to drive that monitor at 144Hz? I think it’d only just have enough bandwidth to do it at 120Hz, but only at 8bit rather than 10bit, and presumably without AdaptiveSync as well (if that even works on xorg of course).
Or do you have one of those rare DisplayPort to HDMI 2.1 adapters? (though in that case I’d wonder why you wouldn’t just be using DisplayPort directly…)
Haha no I don’t, it runs at 70hz but I will order a display port module later maybe.
It’s my work computer so I don’t really need this refresh rate for cloud, code and devops tasks. Furthermore, I found that GUI doesn’t benefit high refresh rates on linux, most of the time I see an awful tearing when draging windows on the screen, even in 144hz.
It’s a good monitor for gaming / working tho 
Piggybacking on this post because I also had issues with a USB-C hub monitor and Fedora 36. In my case, the laptop saw the monitor, but the monitor reported no signal 
.
I switched to Xorg and it’s working now - Framework is in clamshell mode connected via USB-C to a 32" 4k screen daisy chained to a portrait orientation 22" 1080p. I also have a work-issued desktop connected via DP, and they share keyboard and mouse (wireless via a USB dongle) as well as webcam. I’ve been able to switch back and forth and everything seems to be working as expected.
This sounds a bit like the issue I’m having with my 12th gen laptop on Fedora 36. In particular, I couldn’t get the DisplayPort to work on my Dell TB16 thunderbolt dock even though it worked on an 11th gen Framework laptop I tried. Thankfully, I had a spare USB-C to DisplayPort cable and that seemed to work with the Thunderbolt port on the Dell TB16 dock.
Up: I still have the error on either xorg or wayland. Pluging a thunderbolt cable make the charging led blink on the laptop like if it doesn’t know if it’s for charging or a USB hub
I’m not quite sure if this problem has anything to do with the monitor. I have the same problem with the connecting/disconnecting cycle with my thunderbolt 4 docking station even when no other device is attached to the dock.
UP: So after a while, I decided to try again with a new thunderbolt 4 cable and I still have the problem. I will contact the support about this and let you know.
Direct connections “should” work, however, we always recommend using HDMI or DP as the gold standard.
As always:
Hey ! Yeah it has been a long time and this issue is still bothering me ! But this time, dmesg is a bit more clearer:

So we can see multiple errors:
Device not responding to setup address.
device not accepting address 23, error -71
device descriptor read/64, error -71
I have yet to find what this error code means, anyone have a wild guess ?
Cheers,
Louis
Hi Louis,
Looking at error -71 specifically, while kinda generic, tells me it is experiencing communication issues. By the book, usually means incompatibility or bad connection. Usually the former - the dock.
Hi Matt, thanks for your response !
Well, it’s directly connected to my screen with a thunderbolt cable, which is a 38WN95C.
Perhaps the screen hosts a kind of « dock » that is not compatible then ?
Thanks,
Louis
