To summarize: I swapped PSUs and graphics cards including putting the card from #3 in #4
I booted from the 2020.10 hard disk and Live Image I swapped the KVM cables and ports I tried the other PCIe slot that will take the graphics card. I put a scope on the 5 V and 12 V rails. After all that agony I finally tracked it down. A couple of junk DVI-VGA adapters! Somehow in my search for the cause of the kernel panics I failed to notice that the display resolution was wrong when I was running 2020.10 in #4 After all this I'm exhausted. But I've never lost a battle with a piece of computer HW and was not about to start. I'd like to shoot these, but that would require more trouble than they are worth. So I am going to crush them with a 20 ton hydraulic press. If there were someone I disliked enough, I'd give them away. The moral of this sad tale is, "Don't put untested parts in your spares bin!" I bought these to have some spares on hand, but did not test them when i received them. They were still in the bags. I damaged my old one for #4 while shifting HW. Unfortunately, I still have the kernel panics to deal with :-( Reg _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
