Is there any way to connect 2 screens to a hp linux laptop (having only 1 HDMI port and no type c) ?

    Some hp's have docking stations available, maybe you could try one of these.

    Dock, get a dock.

    If not, then based on my limited knowledge of video output, you'll want a splitter that is powered to amplifier the signal and retain the resolution over multiple screens, there's also the issue of extended vs mirrored screens since your using it from a laptop, I doubt you'll be able to have extended screens using anything outside of a dock, but who knows there could be some cheap-o solution on AliExpress.

    Look up DisplayLink as an option. It allows connecting displays over USB.

    @C0D4 @geekgirl97 usually an nitebook can use 2-3 monitors(including itself). but these additional screens can usually only used with an dock.

    Just about sure that will only drive one extra monitor even with an HDMI splitter.

    You want to drive the third monitor with a USB to HDMI external card.

    I have used the EVGA Products for several years at home and work... and while I probably wouldn't recommend gaming on them for business purposes they've worked just fine.

    @C0D4 @HiFiWiFiSciFi @electrineer @impune-pl Thank you guys for your suggestions. I think dock seems to be the best option. 👍
