Ubuntu Version:
Ubuntu mate 24.04.2 ARM
Desktop Environment:
Mate
Problem Description:
I cannot upgrade the kernel version from 6.8.0-11-generic, even 6.8.0-31-generic has the same problem otherwise the resolution is fixed to 1024x768. There are no other precompiled versions between 6.8.0-11-generic and 6.8.0-31-generic. The latest kernel available has the same problem 6.11.0-17-generic.
Relevant System Information:
Unfortunately, the device SoC, Snapdragon 8cx gen 2, is the only one in the series (gen 1, gen 3 and gen 4) that is not supported by the Linux kernel. So the only solution I have found is to use hyper-v on windows 11 (virtualbox does not work on arm on windows).
What I’ve Tried:
uname -a
6.8.0-11-generic #11-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Wed Feb 14 02:53:31 UTC 2024 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux
