SUMMARY: Sun Fire V210 no longer displaying on XVR-100



Dear all,

First off can I thank everyone that responded, more specifically Iain and
Aaron.

My issue was resolved by running the command 'eeprom
output-device=screen:r1024x768x75' as root

I ran the command from user land and waited for the nightly reboot,
hey presto all works fine the next morning.

Before my output-device was only set to 'screen'.

Thank you again.

Cheers,

William

Hello list,

I have a batch of 6 V210's with the XVR-100 product installed, during
the o/s installation I had the display working by setting the
output-device variable and rebooting. Everything seemed fine until we
had these racked up and in production, we are trying to use a new KVM
system on the boxes but they are not responding on VGA at all.

We have tried having the KVM installed correctly while the machines
reboot but we are still getting a blank screen.

When we plug in a standalone monitor and Sun KB (taking the KVM out of
the equation) we get a white screen on the monitor and nothing else.

Using prtdiag I can confirm it shows the graphics card as :

'SUNW,XVR-100 (Display) SUNW,375-3181 okay /pci@1d,700000/SUNW,XVR-100@1'

Thank you for your time.

Regards,

Will
