Note that there are HDMI to VGA dongles from Apple as well so the VGA to 
NTSC trick should still work if you need your display port for something 
else.

That is a problem with some Minis (mine included). You need a 
screen of some kind, even if the screen is off, or the Mac 
spends so much time searching for a screen that it slows down. 
There are also converters you used to be able to get, which 
would trick the Mac into thinking a screen was connected when in 
reality all that was there was a little box, but I don't know if 
those are still around.

Re: Screenless mac.

2014-06-25 Thread Sabahattin Gucukoglu
Still an issue on the latest Mini, unfortunately.  When I used to have a KVM I 
was in a much better place, but now I need the Thunderbolt port long-term, so I 
just reluctantly put up with it.  It only affects the window server; other 
processes ought to be fine, including server services that continue to run 
while you are logged out.  But it's still a bloody nuisance.

Cheers,
Sabahattin

Re: Screenless mac.

2014-06-24 Thread Alex Hall
I am pretty sure you are looking for an NTSC box, but I am not totally certain. 
Still, a cheap monitor these days can't be much, especially an older one. You 
will probably need a Mini Display to VGA converter if you get the NTSC box or 
an old monitor, just FYI That adapter says Mini Display, but it is the same as 
Thunderbolt and hooks up to that jack on the Mac Mini.

Thanks.

That is a problem with some Minis (mine included). You need a screen of some 
kind, even if the screen is off, or the Mac spends so much time searching for a 
screen that it slows down. There are also converters you used to be able to 
get, which would trick the Mac into thinking a screen was connected when in 
reality all that was there was a little box, but I don't know if those are 
still around.
