Title: Dell Inspiron HDMI not working
Tags: nvidia;dell;hdmi;inspiron
Question: My Machine is a Dell make and the model is Inspiron-N5110
It has a Nvidia 540M graphics card in it.
I cannot connect my laptop to the TV via HDMI and i tried installing bumblebee, nvidia-current, but no success so far.
Any one with the same issues, please help


Here is another answer: I had the same problem, both in Windows and Ubuntu 18.04. I solved it by diagnosing my machine specs, downloading and installing the newest drivers at Dell Support:

After that, I changed the BIOS settings removing Legacy mode, enabling secure boot and UEFI.

Here is another answer: Try http://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee/wiki/Multi-monitor-setup
It has steps to enable more monitors, I have not tried it.
