One cable has all 15 pins and the second cable has no pin 9 (depending on how you count.. one from middle row) I do not have any KVM switch in this setup. The VGA cable goes straight from ultra 20 to the sunray 170. The output was from the setup when I was using the VGA cable with all 15 pins on both end. Here is the new output from the setup with one pin (pin 9) missing on both end. http://pastebin.com/f32c29209 > The driver is unable to read EDID from Sun Ray 170: > > (WW) NVIDIA(0): Unable to get display device CRT-0's EDID; cannot compute > DPI > (WW) NVIDIA(0): from CRT-0's EDID. > > The driver should be defaulting to 1024x768 at 75Hz.
