+h2. Monitor compatibility with Juno

+HDMI support is not fully mature yet, and there are issues when using Juno with some monitors.

+* On some monitors, the native resolution is not always achieved, and Juno degrades to 1024x768. On the next reboot, there is a chance that the native resolution may be selected.
+* For some display modes on some monitors, the display can periodically lose synchronisation, causing a brief picture loss each time this occurs. The ratio of display time versus blanking time varies significantly across monitors and modes.
+* On some monitors, Juno is unable to establish a working display mode.

+The following table summarises our experience with the monitors that we have used in-house. Please note that in future we will strive to increase Juno compatibility across the majority of monitors, but this means it is possible that a future patch that improves support on many monitors might actually degrade compatibility on a specific individual monitor.
