Hello.
I have a sparc 10 running solaris 7. When plugged into a sun monitor it works fine. However I need to connect it to a compaq v55 monitor and have a couple of adapters (that plug into the back of the sparc and provide a VGA port).
The Compaq monitor can do at least 1024x768 - but when I start the machine, I do not get any output to the monitor at all.
Any help much appreciated

Thanks
Astin
 
SPARC video adapters provide default resolution of 1200x1600, so your monitor just will not cut it.
I have successfully used Acer 76i, DELL 1025TM and ViewSonic 17in (not sure of the exact model) with SPARC 20.

I am not aware of a way to change the default resolution.

Good luck.
