Packages for VGA converter display

[Raulp]

Hello, 

I am using micro HDMI(connected to micro HDMI of BBB) to Male HDMI cable on BBB which I have inserted to female HDMI to VGA converter which is connected to my VGA Monitor.But I cant see anything except the first few logs after that it goes black.

Do I need to install any packages to have the HDMI VGA'ed output on the monitor?

Thanks in advance !

Rgds,

As I recall, that's what mine do since I flashed the November Wheezy on
them. Since it doesn't like my 16:10 aspect monitor I usually just SSH into
it from my Win7 box... My 16:9 TVs, which it will work on, are too far from
the router for my to have network connectivity when on the TV.

Have you tried moving a mouse to see if you have a pointer somewhere?

On mine, the screen has no logo, no task/icon bar. Just a <right-click>
menu with options for a console/terminal window and for a web browser.

I can see the output if I connect a micro HDMI cable(but not till the login screen).

SSH'ing is the last resort .It works anyway !I just wanted to use for what I have paid - a VGA converter :(  and a micro HDMI connector which connects to this.

The VGA signals are not supported on the HDMI signal if you are using just the connector adapter..

Sorry ! I am using exactly the same .Please see the attachments.

SSH'ing the terminal is fine but for that I must know the IP address of the BBB(my port being dynamic IP port) , I need to at-least see the login screen on the external display.

Can some one tell if there is any package needs to be installed on the bbb or any configuration?
