Finally got the correct Sun 13W3-to-VGA adapter and, it turns out, my Samsung 205BW LCD works just fine with all of my Sun lunchbox systems. I haven't booted my collection of lunchbox systems in years and haven't hooked them up to a display for even longer, so I was happy to see them work to some degree or another. Only two of the four had dead IDPROMs. IPC Good PROM. However, the old Sun 424 (Seagate 1480N) disk seems to have died. Was able to boot a RedHat Linux 6.1 CD. IPX Dead PROM. Booted Solaris 2.6 fine. Classic Good PROM. Booted Solaris 2.6 fine (if SLOW). LX Dead PROM. Tried to boot installed RedHat Linux, but bailed on the dead PROM. Can't find my Solaris 2.6 CD; wonder if I gave all of them to Ian ... alan
