If this is the only reason why you’re trying to set up a serial console, then it won’t help. Neither X11 nor Wayland can use a serial console either. You’re better off restarting services like GDM to figure out why it isn’t able to talk to a monitor. Wayland doesn’t have as many useful tools for querying things like monitor settings, so logs are the best place to look. -- Jonathan Billings -- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
