Thanks for the new build. I've been testing on my laptop and have found that HDMI over USB-C is not working. My previous testing on this suggested to me that Kernel 5.5 or newer is required to resolve the issue. Until now, I have been running a custom version of Fatdog64-811 with Kernel 5.10.34. Just making you aware of this problem. Let me know if I can provide any further info that would be helpful.
Custom Kernel Config:

We have 5.10.63, here: http://distro.ibiblio.org/fatdog/kernels/810/
I think it includes what's needed for USB-C Video output, but since we don't have the hardware ourselves, we can't test.
And since you're already running a custom kernel, I assume you know how to run Fatdog with a different kernel and don't need further instructions

@jamesbond - Kernel 5.10.63 does indeed resolve the issue for me. Thanks for the tip.

Hello @Jakel
Question: Is audio working over HDMI/USB-C to the monitor/TV's speakers?
Curious
