monitor on rs/6000
I bought an old IBM RS/6000 9114-275 1,00 GHz + 4 GB with AIX 6 Beta preinstalled. I have a TFT monitor at home. There's no fitting connector on the server for it. Does anyone know what type of monitor, or cable is common for this type of machine? I just never had to deal with things like this at work so I don't know a lot about the hardware of these servers.

Thanks.

Ps.
the graphics card is:

GXT4500


And I have a 15 pins connector for my screen.

Before a X-Server is started to display anything on your monitor you might connect a serial terminal to see what's going on and later change the output to LFT.

I had to buy an DVI to VGA adapter, and switched the screen to 1024x768 pixels and now it works.
