Re: no display on console
Since that is a workstation, you actually need a monitor to have full capabilities for CDE. However, you can connect your console to the COM1 port of your C3600 to get a normal text-only access.
Do not forget to run your C-Class in run-level 3, not 4. Vi /etc/inittab.
HTH,
Vince

Re: no display on console
Once other item.
You may need to reset the terminal back to the default settings to get it to work. From memory hold down the 'd' key (could be control-D) when powering off/on.

Re: no display on console
I did that but still could not get messages on the console.
I have this problem with one or two machines.
Is there something I should do on the display setting on the machine.
Thanks

Re: no display on console
There is no terminal configured by default in HP-UX, you need to create one using SAM (or manual). Check the file /etc/inittab for a line like:
a0:3:respawn:/usr/sbin/getty -h tty1p0 9600

Re: no display on console
You won't get boot messages to the Serial Console unless you change the console path from graphics to the serial path. By adding the inittab entry, you'll be able to login... but won't see console messages.
If you shutdown the box, disconnect the system's keyboard and mouse, the system will default to serial1 when booted up.
To verify/change the console path, interrupt the boot. type "HElp PAth CONsole" for info.
Hope this helps,

Re: no display on console
Is your terminal direct connected to the serial port or via modem. It seems the inittab entry "a0" is a modem connection.

Re: no display on console
Also watch the LCD panel on the system. After POST it should tell you where the console is set to, If it says Console: graphics then it is trying to use the video card. If it says Console: serial or rs232 then it is outputting the display to the serial port.

Re: no display on console
I could see a grphical card for the system using
#ioscan -funC graphics.
I think probably the normal monitors support support displaying but why dont 70096 monitor models run.
Is that I need to explicitly point whether it is a graphical console or a normal ascii console.
Thanks
