I've got a 19 inch SGI monitor (model GDM-20D11) that a friend gave me
along with an Indy and an Indigo2. I have an adapter that goes from
SGI -> VGA so that I can hook the monitor up to my machine. I'm running
Mac OS X 10.3.8 on a dual processor G4 machine. I'm unable to get the
SGI monitor to come out of "amber" mode.

Pictures of the monitor and the adapter can be seen here:

Does anyone have any ideas in getting this monitor to go live? Any help
is appreciated. Sorry for storming your group for answers, I'm not
getting much help anywhere else. :-\
