Lighting solid colours
« on: January 14, 2006, 07:01:00 pm »
I have a few old crappy computer monitors lying around, and I had an idea for a project.

How hard is it to make a monitor light up in a single solid colour without a computer?  Can I just tie one of the RGB pins to ground/+5, or do I have to supply a sync?  Any idea how to generate a simple sync signal?
