Hello, I am trying on a 3.2-STABLE box to use kbdcontrol and vidcontrol to set 80x60 mode as described in a FreeBSD documentation, without success. First kbdcontrol refuses to load a 8x8 font with the option -l /usr/share/syscons/fonts/*** and says illegal definition line. Incidentally i have loaded fr.iso.acc keymap and indeed a q etc. are at the correct places but accented letters do not work, and emit a beep. Second vidcontrol refuses to go to 80x60 or VGA_80x60 or any other mode, while other options work. I have already seen messages on this list about such problems, but have not seen an answer that works for me. I would be happy if you can explain a little bit what is the correct way to contact the syscons driver. Thank you very much -- Michel TALON To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
