What do you mean by HDR? High Display Resolutions, High Dynamic Range?
For what it's worth, most manufacturers don't supply any drivers for
the hardware that Linux runs. Other people have figured them out.
It's High
Dynamic Range, its a methodology for improving the colour
range, brightness range and detail. I think it is the video equivalent
of HDR for photography.
Windows would not say the Monitor was HDR compatible and hence provide
configuring of it in its monitor settings until I installed the BENQ
driver for this monitor.
