No. But it does not mean that it will not work. Look at http://www.hp.com/products1/unixserverconnectivity/misc/graphics/specifications/index.html . It states:
"additional products for use with A6150B:
- A4983B Keyboard and mouse kit;
- D8912W 19" Graphics Monitor (replaced D8910W);
- D8915W 21" Graphics Monitor (replaced D2847W).
Other monitors may be compatible with this graphics card. Please see the "maximum resolution and monitor support" section of the specifications"

Hello,

I have also one more problem. The ioscan output shows that the driver "graph3" UNKNOWN . It doesn't show "CLAIMED". I have even tried reinstalling the OS on another disk and tried removing /dev/crt and recreating again. But still same problem persists.Can someone give me some clue on this?


Thanks and Best Regds,

Did you install card's software? Attach 'ioscan -fn' and 'swlist -l fileset' in one file to your next reply

Hi,

I couldn't find any driver related to this particular card in the Application CDs. Neither did I get any separate CD along with the graphics card. Could you please tell me which driver is to be installed( the S/W product number) that supports this Graphics card and from where to get it?


With Best Regards,

Please attach outputs I requested. In addition, if you know driver for the device try running SAM and including this driver to kernel

Hello,

I'm attaching the outputs asked by you..

the ioscan output shows:

graphics 1 0/10/0/0 graph3 UNCLAIMED UNKNOWN PCI Display (10
3c108b)

I have checked up in another system working fine with a 21" normal HP monitor.It is also using the same driver "graph3".

This system is running vPars.But same problem observed with and without vPar being enabled.


Thanks and Best Regards,

Maybe card is defective or should be installed in certain slot? Is it possible to check with that machine wich you mentioned is working fine?

Hi Abdul,

Graphics adapters MUST be installed in a Turbo Slot on RP 54xx systems. They will not function in other slots.

hello,

The card is installed in a Twin-Turbo slot which is not shared. And I dont have any other system for checking whether this card is defective or not.

Do you have any idea whether FLAT Panel monitor works with L class machine?

I didn't receive any S/W driver with this card. Do you think I need to load some driver separately for this?


Thanks and regards,

Abdul Salam

Abdul,
it is not dependant on which monitor you're connecting to the card - in ioscan it is UNKNOWN and UNCLAIMED, although system knows that it's graphics card and attached graph3 driver. So I think that problem is not in the monitor, but in the card or server or configuration.
If you have HP support contact/warranty I would recommend to call HP

Hello,

This problem is still pending.Does anyone know how to get the graphics card into "CLAIMED" condition? As per the documents, this card is supported in rp54xx.Is there any specific drivers or scripts I should use additionally to make it functioning?

Thanks and Best Regards,
Abdul Salam
