Why do you need a screen on a server? Btw, most of those "Plug computers"
don't have VGA or HDMI. Mele A1000/A2000 does have VGA, but:

1) server-style kernels for A10 disable the video device to free up memory;

2) the console output does not work anyway at this moment, so even if you had
a screen connected, you wouldn't see anything until Xorg has started (and
would you really want Xorg there?).
