Things your monitor should do (depending on manufacturer and model):

(a) Switch on the monitor, don't switch on the computer: the monitor should go into a 'low power mode', usually accompanied by the LED on the front of your monitor changing from green to orange/yellow. When you switch on the PC the monitor should come back from the 'low power mode', the LED will be changing again.

(b) Switch on the monitor, switch on the PC:
(1) your graphics card should display a standard message (make & model)
(2) the bios should be displaying it's POST (=Power On Self Test: memory checking, detecting drives etc..)

If (a) is not occuring, and it is on your other PC, start checking cables. Possible remove the KVR switch.

If (b1) is not occuring, check your graphics card (again), possible switch it with an alternate card.

If (b2) is not occuring, start digging threw those cupboards, shelves etc for the userguide of your motherboard.

If I'm underestimating your tech-knowhow (or overestimating mine) I sincerely apologise.

I guess the subject asks it all, but I am wondering (before I go and code a COBOL module) if conversion of regular ASCII data to COMP-3 is possible on a UNIX environment (AIX 5.1)? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks, Dave (13 Replies)

NAME
ctrlaltdel - set the function of the Ctrl-Alt-Del combination SYNOPSIS
ctrlaltdel hard|soft DESCRIPTION
Based on examination of the linux/kernel/sys.c code, it is clear that there are two supported functions that the Ctrl-Alt-Del sequence can perform: a hard reset, which immediately reboots the computer without calling sync(2) and without any other preparation; and a soft reset, which sends the SIGINT (interrupt) signal to the init process (this is always the process with PID 1). If this option is used, the init(8) program must support this feature. Since there are now several init(8) programs in the Linux community, please consult the documentation for the version that you are currently using. ctrlaltdel is usually used in the /etc/rc.local file. FILES
/etc/rc.local SEE ALSO

The ctrlaltdel command is part of the util-linux package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/. util-linux October 1993 CTRLALTDEL(8)
