LOL you poor saps have to take tests to advance? The Marine Corps lets you advance through the lower enlisted ranks by measuring poo poo that counts, Physical Fitness Tests and Rifle Scores. Those were both instrumental in teaching me to load ships and planes better.

Proles still have to take a test.

For technical goons- I have a pretty awesome computer monitor at work. I don't remember the exact resolution, but it's great for government stuff. Problem is, they're going to install my SIPR using one of those switchbox things and I've noticed that everyone else who has that has really lovely res. The IT guy quickly explained why, but can someone break it down for a non-IT type and if there's a cable I can get that won't break the bank that will keep the higher resolution?

Real talk not talking down to you. Happy to link more info if you have questions. The higher the resolution, the more information that needs to go from the computer's graphics card to the monitor. If the switchbox switches between which computer the signal is coming from is old or cheap then the amount of information it can pass at one time could be limited. Additionally, it could just be the type of cable that they're using. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_connectors A list of video connectors. VGA is 1987 tech that's still supported on old monitors and graphics cards. Then there's DVI (2000 tech), HDMI (2003 tech) and then Displayport (2007 tech). Generally if supports DVI or HDMI you should be fine.

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...a1c27be7?auth=1quote:It is a problem found with those KVM switches which did not pass the console display's EDID and DDC information to all the systems connected to the KVM switch. So probably they're using an old switch.

Yeah, but you're allowed in the building, right? Took about three weeks to get a CAC, another three weeks to get NIPR access, and I'm still waiting on SIPR. I'm ok with staying home for two days in the middle of every week though, this is working out well. I'm glad I tried to contact the guy before I made the 40 minute drive to the base.

germskr posted:I'll have to remember to look, but it's definitely not HDMI. It's a 99% chance your switch only supports VGA, you might be lucky and have DVI. HDMI is almost assuredly not supported though. Also from what I've seen all Black Box KVMs at least in the last 10+ years have supported EDID pass-through, so you shouldn't have a problem with your monitor resolution being the wrong size, you should be able to just plug it in and go. At worst you'll have to reset the monitor resolution or get the IT guys to do it because they locked down display resolution settings for some unknown reason.
