I have an Indy running 5.3. I have a Deep Space Cables 13W3-HD15
adaptor and what to put a LCD screen on it. Does any know of particular
units that work or don't work?

Since the Indy puts out Sync-on-Green the LCD should accept that.

Best is when native resolution of display and SGI gfx output match.

I have a Samtron 94v working seamlessly on Indigo2 and O2 machines,
with 1280x1024x60HZ. Besides, this LCD is excellent but inexpensive.

Analog input only, though - useless if you want to upgrade to a Fuel.
Otherwise - a best choice 19" LCD in terms of price/performance ratio.

AFAIK it depends on the GFX, if it has H and V sync. Both my Indys (24
bit GFX) work with a cheap standard V7 TFT.

The Samsung 191T, which Sun rebadges and sells with current
workstations, is known to work at the Sun console resolution (some LCDs
will sync only once the GUI mode has started.) It does support SoG as
well, and I believe has been used on SGIs as old as the Indigo. I just
snagged one on ebay for $144. YMMV.
