Hello devs,
from this link https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Type-C-DP-Alt-Mode-Linux-4.19 there is info that kernel 4.19 will support usb type c. But, is there any alternative ways to show the output of monitor to the second or third monitor with this port (USB Type-C) ?

I'm running Deepin on my Dell XPS 9560 and am using an LG monitor over usb-c every day.
It charges my laptop while also using at as a monitor with 4k resolution.
I'm running kernel 4.15.0-29deepin-generic.

So I'm wondering if you really need the usb-c DisplayPort Alternate Mode as described in the Phoronix article.
