The command needed to fix video resolution is m64config. I'm glad to say it's not obvious since I'd searched on *vid*, *disp* etc, but found nothing :) afbconfig and fbconfig may also help, but I didn't have to try them to get this working. There's also a site which lists some third party hardware confirmed to work with Sun: http://www.stokely.com/unix.sysadm.resources/faqs3.sun.html Thanks to the following for their answers: Lars Hecking Rainer Heilke Peter Ondruska Hichael Morton Paul Tader Sergio Gelato Fred Hall Geoff Lane Cheers, Stuart. _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Wed Nov 14 13:08:14 2001
