Setting GDM resolution without knowing the monitor specs
We had a complaint recently from a customer that received a server we shipped out that their monitor just showed a black screen. It turns out that they?d hooked it up to an ancient POS with 800x600 as its best resolution, and gdm in CentOS 7 apparently assumes at least 1024x768. It was apparently a major hassle for them to hunt down a reasonable monitor for us.
Since we almost never use the GUI

Setting GDM resolution without knowing the monitor specs
...drive in, booted it up, and it didn?t reappear on their network. No remote access, no presence on the LAN. It wouldn?t even ping.
After a ridiculous amount of remote troubleshooting, it turned out that these two motherboards ? despite having the same model number and EFI firmware version ? had a sliiiight difference: the first NIC appeared as enp2s0 and the second as enp3s0 on one motherboard, but as enp3s0 and enp4s0 on the other! So, one network config wasn?t being applied, and the second was being applied to the wrong NIC.
And here I thought the point of [CNDN][1] was to make such replacements...
