I went
out and bought a new 12th generation Intel box to do
VirtualBox testing on and moved the nvme from my gen 10 5080
to the gen 12 5000.
It has the UHD 770 graphics processor but does not display video on the Monitor - the BIOS does and the grub menu displays fine.
I do have ssh and vnc into the box. I am able to use it but not on the unit itself.
Larry Finger helped me gen 6.4.0 kernel on the box to see if newer i915 drivers fix the problem - it did not.
It is running Leap 15.5 and has 8 VirtuaBox guests running - I did have to add ibt=off to get that to work.
Per the internet and Linux with gen 12 - it was reported that you needed this parameter on the kernel line - It made no difference.
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="noresume splash=verbose showopts i915.force_probe=4680 ibt=off"

I set the video mode to 1920x1080 to get the correct display
in vnc with this script
cat

/usr/bin/xrandr --newmode "1920x1080" 173.00 1920 2048

/usr/bin/xrandr --addmode DP-2 1920x1080
/usr/bin/xrandr --fb 1920x1080
Any help would be appreciated. It appears that all flavors on
Linux have this issue but these folks said they got it to work
