I typically use a micro-HDMI to HDMI cable, then an HDMI to DVI-D adapter, but as long as you've got micro-HDMI on one end and DVI-D (or HDMI, whichever your monitor supports) on the other you should be OK. > Should I be using a Sub-D to HDMI Micro? No, the BeagleBone doesn't output analog video, so it won't hook to a 15-pin VGA D-Sub connector. > DVI-D to HDMI Micro? Should work. > Does this image give anybody any hints as to where I might look to solve > problem? It looks like maybe a bad cable or connection, or possibly a video format the monitor doesn't like. I'd try forcing something really common, like 1024x768 or even plain VGA 640x480 using the uEnv.txt file. Since the BeagleBone isn't connecting, you can edit this file on another Linux system (probably even your Mac) if use an SD card reader. Personally, I never like connecting to the 'Bone via USB and always run either stand-alone with a KB/Monitor connected, or connect via the wir`ed Ethernet port. Worst case, you can hook a serial cable up to the console port on the BBB and assign it a fixed IP address. -- Charles Steinkuehler [email protected] -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
