At my work we use a signal converter to connect PS/2 keyboard, PS/2 =
mouse
and "VGA" monitor to SUN work stations.
It is "CV-130 SUN to PS/2 Console Converter".=20

With this device it is possible to use normal PC keyboard/monitor =
switch to
select diffrent PC's or working stations's


Best regards

mouse,
the keyboard is a bit broken (lost some keys, maybe works) and no =
monitor.
How can I use this beast? Can I connect a common VGA monitor to that =
13W3
connector on its back, or should I find a fixed frequency monitor? :o)

If you don't connect a keyboard or mouse, the system will automatically =
use
the serial port as its console.  Just hook a terminal or a PC serial =
port to
the serial connector and you're set.

I had an old Sparcstation 1 until recently.  Makes a good door stop, =
it's
quite heavy.  This one is a Sparc 20...  I'm thinking about now that =
there's
a reason I like Linux so much.
