The collected works of pettersson

Hi,

I am pettersson and recently one of my teenage dreams came true - I now own a SGI o2 (r5k, 128mb).
After cleaning it up a bit, I connected it to my Monitor (DELL U2711, manual says it supports SOG). Machine turned on, I can hear the startup sound, but I get no picture, the power led is green. I have to add, currently ther is no Harddisk installed (got the machine from work and I had to remove the hdd). I thought I might get into some kind of bios to check if the machine is still working, even without a HDD.
Is there any basic tutorial about these machines?

regards
pettersson
Good morning guys,

thanks a lot for your help! Setting the console to g did indeed fix the problem. About the Monitor: It auto adjusted to 1280x1024 and scaled the picture to fill the screen from top to bottom with black bars on both sided. Looks quite good :D So I guess it's safe to say the DELL u2711 is compatible.

Now I need to get a compatible HD. I can't wait to play Quake on this little machine :)
