Follow-up on getting the Sun Ray 1G working with my Dell 2007FPW In The Monster got a computer, I wrote about how I got a Dell 2007FPW monitor and that my Sun Ray 1G could not drive the full resolution. Things just look stretched. Anway, I quickly had a comment posted on how to make a change on the server to allow my machine to drive the 2007FPW:
$ /opt/SUNWut/sbin/utresdef -a -c "Dell 2007FPW" 1680x1050@60d 1680x1050 <<EOF
htotal=2256
hfp=104
hsyncwidth=184
vtotal=1087
vfp=1
vsyncwidth=3
vcomposite=8
pixclock=14714
xres=1680
yres=1050
hz=60
EOF
Then use 'utresadm' to associate that timing with a particular DTU,
and make sure that the access token being presented by that DTU
does not already have a stale cached timing setting:
$/opt/SUNWut/sbin/utresadm -d -c <DTU> -t <token>
$/opt/SUNWut/sbin/ utresadm -a -c <DTU> -t <token> 1680x1050@60d
$/opt/SUNWut/lib/utresexec -k -c <DTU> -t <token>
I tried to do this and discovered I did not have root on the server - which, come to think of it, is a very good idea. No problem, I eventually submitted a help desk request. The first round of support helped me change my frequency, which was not what I was asking for... Anyway, the upshot of it all was that Sun IT does not support any settings other than the default. It was suggested that I have my manager purchase me a monitor from some approved list.
I did find out to access the current settings, use shift-Props. Another thing I just found out was that to power-cycle the thing, use ctrl-quarter moon. This is the white key in the upper-right. Sometimes when my Sun Ray does not connect to the server, I have to power down my router, Cisco 831, and the Sun Ray. Until now, that meant pulling the plug.
