If your VGA monitor can support 1152 x 900 @ 62.75 KHz x 66 Hz, then you can
simply use an Ultraspec # 1395 adaptor and connector the monitor to your
Sun's colour framebuffer that way.
Otherwise, connect your linux box or a regular serial terminal to the first
serial port and leave the Sun kbd unconnected.
Regards,
Craig.
