There is a VGA connector on the back of the machine (that I have a monitor plugged into). This page lists the video and graphics controller: http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/validateUser.do?target=Systems/SunFireX2270/spec Video One VGA 16MB - 1600x1200 @ 60Hz Graphics controller ASPEED AST2000 - 2D graphics controller embedded in Service Processor Support remote console at a resolution up to 1600x1200x16b...@60hz This displays the text console when the machine boots after install. Looking at the services, they all seem to be running (including gdm). When I booted the machine from a USB image of 2009.06, the GUI desktop was displayed on the console. After installing, only the text login screen is displayed there. Thanks for responding so quickly. I appreciate it. Bill. _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
