Unable to properly boot Power Mac G5 running Debian without a screen connected


I've got Power Mac G5 running Debian 6 in headless mode as a media / home server.


When booting it without an attached screen, the fans ramp up from the idle speed to maximum over a couple of minutes. The red interior warning light is not lit.


The server is ping-able the entire time, but startup utilities such as SSH and other are never started - at least they are unreachable.


If a screen is connected until the login-prompt appears, it works just fine. Connecting a screen after booting does nothing; it must be connected the entire time.


I do not know, nor am I able to test if this is a problem when running Mac OS X.


Has anyone experienced this before, and if so, is there a solution to this?
