This reminds me of the reason why I had to move to serial console, not because of lack of support but because the monitor I had at the time (brand new 19" sony) didn't work with my 712. Or it does.. but the screen flickers sometimes with just a couple of seconds appart, sometimes it can take a couple of minutes, but it just won't stop. It does it with another cheap 15", but I now got a another monitor, a 17" Panasonic and the sti console work fine it, no blinking. Does anyone know what could be the cause for the 19" sony not to function correctly. It works fine with a PC, Mac and even an old Sun3. -- Kaj-Michael Lang, milang@tal.org
