I have installed AB551A display adaptor in RP3440 server in slot no 4 and connected TFT monitor with this but display is not coming on this,while the display card is showing in ioscan with gvid_core driver and it is claimed.
I also cheked the device file /dev/gvid0 and /dev/gvid1 but these are not available.

Re: display issue with AB551A card in HPUX


As per the following link
http://www.hp.com/products1/serverconnectivity/misc/graphics/specifications/AB551A_specs.html?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN

The card AB551A is supported on
rx1600 rx1620 rx2600 rx2620 rx4640
But there is no mention of rp3440, so probably the card is not supported on rp3440.
what does the manual for the card say ?

Let me check for some more details.

A6150B is the graphics card supported on your rp3440. as per http://www.hp.com/products1/servers/rackoptimized/rp3400_series/supplies.html?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN

Also read http://docs.hp.com/en/A7136-96003/A7136-96003.pdf?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN before using the A6150B card.
