Thanks for the quick turnaround! The answer is YES! (I thought it would be
no) my graphics card will work in the Sun Fire v240 so that I can put it on
a KVM switch. I had already issued a boot -r after installing the card so
the system knew the card was there I just had to issue 2 commands to the PROM.
setenv output-device screen
setenv input-device keyboard
Just for the archives my graphics card is model # X3668A, a Sun PGX32 PCI
color frame buffer.
Now the only sad thing is that I have a Black Box ServeSwitch Ultra which
means I have to have a separate keyboard since this one is USB and the
switch doesn't support USB. Already have an extra keyboard sitting out for
my Mac server.
Thanks a bunch to the following....
Kent Perrier, Daniel Pettersson, Thomas Walter, Vinh Tran, Michael Horton,
Skip Hammack and Sean Walmsley.
Lisa
