That explains why the Sun Ray will only drive the monitor at 640x480. > >> I then tried > >> > >> /opt/SUNWut/bin/utxconfig -r 1280x1024 -t pseudo.0003babbaa64 > >> > >> but after power cycling the DTU it still has thesmall > >> resolution.

The Sun Ray picks the best of the timings it got from DDC, but if it didn't get anything from DDC then the only resolution it will use is 640x480. > > If this monitor really doesn't do DDC then you'll need to use the > > 'utresadm' command to force the DTU to drive the monitor with a > > specific timing.

Thanks a lot! It probably means that you haven't activated the Sun Ray Data Store on the server, so 'utresadm' has no place to store this timing configuration. You need to run 'utconfig' to activate the Data Store before you can use commands like 'utresadm' that want to store group-wide settings. 'utxconfig' is just about the only configuration command that works without the Data Store, and that's only because it was invented before the Data Store existed. That error message is horrible, it should say something more helpful than "Internal system error". OttoM. __ ottomeister Disclaimer: These are my opinions.
