thus no display and i didnt really feel like brute forcing the passwords to=
=20
get to the installed HPUX ...
as for the monitor, it's a 19" trintron that i've done resolutions much=20
greater than 1600x1200 with before so i know it's a pretty good monitor ...=
 i=20
dunno about the signals as you mentioned ... but i know the STI Console wor=
ks=20
just dandy :)

perhaps i'll try some random pci cards i got laying around (voodoo/ati) and=
