monitor problem

[Luca Gabrielli]

I Have installed Hp Ux 11 on the workstation Visualize C360.
The installation goes OK.
At the end of reboot ,no errors appears but the monitor start flashing on and off and never stop.
I have tried to change the settings of mt graphic card: from 1280 x 1024 to 1024 x 768, but I have the same result.
Any suggestion?

Hi,

Reboot the station (switch off/on) and boot in the single user mode.
Please check the network settings. It looks like you have problem with X.

The workstation in not connect to a network.Is stand alone!

[Victor Fridyev]

The X, in order to work, uses environmental variable called DISPLAY. It should point on the hostname of the computer. If this is not provided, X application does not work.
Even if the computer is not connected to a network, its hostname myst be normally resolved by nslookup etc.

Luca,

Can you boot your workstation in single user mode ?

Power off your WS
Power on your WS

Hit the escape key when the following message appears:

Searching for a system to boot, press and hold the escape key to override

At the menu, type:

boot pri isl

Answer "y" to:

interact with ISL ?

At the ISL prompt type:

hpux -is

# mount /usr
# vi /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost loopback your_ws_name

# shutdown -r -y now

HTH,
