Submitted as followup to PR7695 on Tue, 29 Sep 1998 11:32:51 +0200:

Having done a little more research, I now know that -CURRENT already has
a knob in rc.conf and some magic in rc.i386 to do vidcontrol stuff to
all virtual terminals.

The appropriate code has had 8 months to mature in -CURRENT, I think
it's ready for an MFC. :-)

I've tested the patches that were applied to the -CURRENT branch, and
they apply perfectly to the -STABLE sources now. I've tested them on my
2.2-STABLE box with no ill effects.

The diffs are attached below, for your convenience.

Ciao,
Sheldon.
