Subject: Crap! HDMI... :( Help!
In my infinite wisdom, I bought yesterday a laptop (Asus ROG GL752VW) and a
4K TV to use as a monitor.
Stupid Windows 10 would not detect HDMI.

OK, screw it, I'm going to dual-boot the thing anyway.
Well, latest-and-greatest Linux Mint (KDE) doesn't detect the HDMI either...
:(

So...
I bought a 'mini display port-to-VGA' adapter and plugged it VGA into the
TV. It works, but I only get the same laptop resolution (1920x1080)
...
8-(

So...
Questions are:
1.- Can I expect my full 4K resolution if I get the #$@! HDMI working?
and
2.- What can I do to get the #$@! HDMI working?
Thanks!
