If anyone is working with a JetKVM and needs a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter that works then this lower cost device seems to do the trick:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B081GMCNNF

~£7 or so and seems to work with the test machine I have here (an HP Prodesk G4) which only offers Displayport output on the unit I have (an HDMI module for the HP is available).

You might come across USB issues with the HP Prodesk devices and the JetKVM but you can alter the USB HID setting for the JetKVM via the Settings -> Hardware -USB Devices section

Not having a Grub boot menu to switch between Kubuntu and Windows 11 would probably help here

The KVM seems to be working in Windows 11 and Kubuntu.

MacKay!

Gosh! All the tech imported from China has been exempted from the tariffs. Squeaky wheels talking to Captain Clueless?

Yes, #HorizontalCases are superior and if you can't have those or a #rackmount as a #deskside machine, you have proper cases with mechanical supports alongside the card to keep it stable.

• It's one of the tings that charge #Lenovo, #Dell & #HP for with their #Worstation-#PC|s...

Trying to set up OpenMediaVault on my HP EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF, but my aftermarket NVMe isn’t detected during install (tested with Debian, OMV, TrueNAS, Arch). BIOS sees it, but no OS does. Even after installing the OS on another PC, the EliteDesk won’t boot from it. Only the original NVMe works. Secure Boot is off. Anyone solved this?

Salut, y'a quelques temps on m'avait donné un lien pour un firmware pour débloquer le machin des cartouches sur une HP Officejet Pro 8610 (oui, je suis fatiguée).
Bref comme j'ai l'effacement automatique des pouet ben j'ai plus le message de départ ni le lien et comme poisson rouge j'ai oublié qui me l'avait passé...
Donc si quelqu'un peut me redonner le lien ce serait génial

I got rid of Windows once again and installed Fedora. This time I'm not facing any issues like last time.

It's going to be hell. Instead of being on hold for 30 minutes and getting the problem solved in 3 minutes, I've been chatting to a machine for half an hour, and now the machine has warned me that the chat will take at least another 45 minutes.

Well, after decades of working in the IT world, when people toot about how awful the author of "HP" is (which I agree with), I read the letters as "Hewlett Packard", which is just as greedy and enshittifiying in segments of the computer industry as the author of "HP" is...
When forced to read it as the fantasy "HP", I read it as "Hairy Pothead" in honor of an unpublished fanfic I wrote years ago...

"In today's video, we'll take a look at my grandfather's vintage HP-45 #calculator from 1973"—so he opens.

As an #EE who used #HP #RPN calculators for my whole career, that word, "grandfather", hit me hard.

In the early 1980s, when I was an #EE undergrad, we revered the #HP laboratory equipment: bench multimeters, oscilloscopes, logic analysers, automated sensors, RPN calculators, etc. But now....

I do have to say, the description that HP sticks on their firmware upgrades is comic:

"For more information, please refer to hp.com"

Because hp.com is such an useful landing page if you want information for a specific update.

Seriously?

Traditional case of "trust us", we won't f%%k up your hardware. Really. And if we do, it's a totally cool throwing brick in its second life.
