Re: Boot to 640x480

I got this Powermac G4 mounted in a rack with OS X Server 10.4.2 and for some reason the CRT connected to it decided not to do 1280x1024 with that mac (works with other boxes in the rack though), So I logged via Remote Desktop and tried to lower the resolution to 800x600 just to get something going but that proved to be a mistake too since the image in Remote Desktop now is blurred and unusable.

So is there any way I can force OS X Server 10.4.2 to boot into a default resolution mode?

You don't need to reboot. Drop a copy of cscreen on to the G4:

<http://www.pyehouse.com/lynn/cscreen.php>

Then set the resolution via ssh with a simple "./cscreen -x 640 -y 480"
