[HP Chromebox G1] VGA monitor not working

Hi,
I’ve two monitors, one monitor with HDMI and another monitor with VGA
I’ve connected the first monitor with DP cable to HDMI
but the second monitor doesn’t work, i’ve used a HDMI to VGA adapter and connected it to the second monitor.

Currently using Ubuntu 24.10

$ lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0b)

any fix or help would be appreciated!!

either your HDMI->VGA adapter isn’t working, or it’s not compatible. Easy solution is to use a monitor from this century with a HDMI or DP port

If you really want / need the VGA monitor, and it has a DVI port you could try an HDMI to DVI converter. Perhaps using an HDMI to DVI and then a DVI to VGA adapter could also work, but I doubt it. The reason DVI could work better is because the video part of the HDMI signal is identical to DVI (which I think means that adapters are “dumb” and don’t have any analog to digital logic).
