[rescue] Problems with GX graphics card in a SS1+

[Jeremy RJ Towers]

That is odd. SunSolve:

http://uk.sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/Devices/Graphics/GRAPH_GX.html

says that the resolution should be 1052 x900 @76Hz as the default.

You could run the test-grapics at the OK prompt, or use SunVTS to test the 
hardware.

What are you trying to set it to?
