You should check your sun ultra10 vga card connector.
If the connector doesn't match with normal monitor.
You can buy the converter.
And you use boot -r to detect the new monitor
 
I think as default my box has both vga cards sun monitor and non sun monitor. before I used to vga card which sun monitor. As default nvram is programmed vga card (sun monitor).
I have some some Ideas which is if I take off the sun monitor vga card from the machine and plugged non sun monitor, the system will not find sun monitor vga card, then it will try to use non sun vga card.

That's looks me un proffitonal,I think there is a way I can disable sun vga card.
I have some thoughts using ffbconfig command and I tried a man page, I did not get enough information to solve this problem

any help will be appreciated
