I know this subject was discussed recently, but I have a new twist..
I need to demonstrate a cgi programme to a client. (So I can ask them
'whaddya want to happen here')
I've got a spare box I can stick Linux on, but it's not got enuf grunt for
X / Netscrape.
So, I want to run the box as an appache server without X, and plug in a
mate's notebook to demo the cgi app.
The box won't boot without a monitor. If I stick a monitor in (without
turning it on), it boots fine.
There is a card - http://www.realweasel.com/intro.html - that looks pretty
neat, (but sounds expensive), but all I really want at this stage is to be
able to boot the box with or without a monitor...
So, does anyone know of a dongle that plugs into a monitor jack and says
'hey I'm a monitor'?, or could one be knocked up by bunging a few resistors
on an old monitor cable? (and if so how?)
