Subject: Setting Console on 3000/300 to serial without video or keyboard connected..

When I power up my 3000/300 without a video cable or keyboard attached, I never see any
activity on the serial port.

If I attach just the video, and power up, I see the test on the monitor, then it mentions
that the keyboard is not available, then I can interact via the serial console.

Is there a way to eliminate the video cable all together?
