Akitio Node with Radeon on XPS 9360

Hi all,

I dont know if this will be useful to anyone but i have just come to Clearlinux and have struggled to get my monitors working at home

If you have an XPS 13 you will note the lack of hdmi output so I purchased an eGPU (Akitio Node) and a Radeon which connects over thunderbolt and worked fine in windows/ubuntu

Sadly this would not work at all on Clearlinux and I had been struggling for some time to get it working

Thanks to mrkz’s help in the freenode irc channel i was able to get it working via the method in this github issue: Akitio Node/Radeon does not detect display [for Xorg sessions] · Issue #996 · clearlinux/distribution · GitHub

Hopefully this will be useful to someone in the stopping by here in the future

Thanks
