Is anyone using a VGA external monitor with a M1 MacBook Air and Big Sur? If so, what adapter are you using for the connection?
I have a HDMI to VGA adapter via the HDMI slot on a Belkin hub. All I get is a black screen. The monitor appears in Sys Prefs>Displays. I can set the Arrangement, and the mouse slides off in the appropriate place and I can drag windows onto the external monitor, but the screen is black.
The monitor works fine with other Macs.
I'm after finding what others use before buying a different adapter.
