HP 2660 video display

New server came with video card. However, attaching video cable to VGA port only returns this to the monitor:
"Console is on a serial device. No further output will appear on this output device."

Not sure where to start to debug this one. Tried two different monitors with same result.
HP 2660 Itanium with HPUX 11i V2. The server was specifically ordered with a video card.

Hi,

You;ll need to tell the system to use the VGA port. See page 73:

Hi,

 

"Console is on a serial device. No further output will appear on this output device."

 

This happened because no keyboard detected at boot up. connect a keyboard and reboot the machine, the output will display properly.
