HP Proliant DL380 Gen9 server
I am installing Linux 7.1 on HP Proliant DL380 Gen9 server and the display get slanted.
Kindly advise the graphic drivers that I should apply to resolve this problem, Is it NVIDIA drivers?
Operating system is Red Hat Enterprise Linux server 32/64 bit x86.
The problem happen when using server console.
Kindly advise driver to install on this model of server.
regards,
John.

Re: HP Proliant DL380 Gen9 server
Hi,
You may install the operating system with basic video driver. For information refer to the document detailing steps for another HP ProLiant Gen9 server model.
Hope this helps!!

Re: HP Proliant DL380 Gen9 server
Thanks, I managed to install Linux 7.1 using another screen, keyboard and mouse and display was completed successfully.
Problem is when I connect the Tripp Lite 1U rack mount console with LCD the display get slanted similar to the document image you provided.
Do you know the solution to correct this issue on Linux, I hope I need to apply display driver on this server, I contacted Linux support and advised to download NVIDIA driver and also I contacted NVIDIA support they asked to check the server for model of the card installed.
Kindly assist.

Re: HP Proliant DL380 Gen9 server
What does slanted mean here? Does the picture lean in a particular direction? Or as in "distorted"?
One obvious thing to try is to try with another monitor - perhaps the resolution is not good for your KVM or something.
xrandr command is usually helpful in determining the settings or in the GUI there is also display settings.
There's also iLO - you can get the console from your PC.
P.s.
This is not the official server support - it's a forum where voluntary and sometimes HP people respond. I'd remove the serial number from your post if I were you.

If it works fine on a different monitor, the issue is more than likely the Tripp Lite not being able to handle the video resolution KMS (Kernel Mode Setting) is using as default. You can try adding 'video=640x480' or 'video=1024x768' or other video options like 'nomodeset' and vga=normal
The video controller in the server is a Matrox not NVIDIA
I don't see this issue on any of the DL380 Gen9 systems I have in the lab running RHEL 7.x

Re: HP Proliant DL380 Gen9 server
When powered ON there is no display at all, it just display NO SIGNAL on the monitor and goes blank.
I tried to use different monitor but same problem. Server itself boots but on monitor nothing is displayed.
It seems monitor does not get signal from server.
