If you can't rely on DDC then I'd use 'utresadm -c default

will want, and then let the people who want something
else just choose the desktop size they want by using
'utxconfig' and then fit that desktop to the monitor by
using 'utsettings' on each unit they visit.  Unless your
user population is extremely mobile the deployment
will settle into the desired state within a couple of
weeks.  (I'm assuming that users will be hotdesking
using their own personal tokens and can therefore
save persistent monitor timings from 'utsettings'.  If
that's not possible then as a last resort you could cobble
together a solution by using 'utaction' to fire off a 'utset'
whenever the session gets attached to a DTU.)

Thanks Otto, this is a work around. When they start deploying in remote locations this could get more difficult. Users just have locked down CAM applications. Hope they buy Sun keyboards for Shift-Props out there.

When inserting a smart card into another unit, this essentially is forcing the display too? (Kind of like a utresadm -c default -t <TOKEN>, if it worked) Or is this a saved setting per DTU?

Do you know why DDC isn't working with the new
monitors?  Cheap cables, downrev firmware, KVM
in the way?

Factory cables, latest firmware(XXXXXX-06), no KVMs. Happens with the Daytek on my desk, and over there they've tried Dell branded LCDs and LG.
