I'm trying an openboot method and will adjust xorg according to /var/log/Xorg.0.log. It should be up tonight. So far: 1) obdiag needs to be run from the forth prompt. There one can see what device is being used. 2) setenv output-device /path/to/card and setenv output-device screen:rWxHxfrequency for card needs to be set followed by reset-all.
