Hiho! :-) Recently, I updated to the latest version of 9-current and found out that I cannot set my console resolution to 800x600 anymore. If I try, it just goes blank or shows a few coloured, garbled lines in the upper third of my monitor. Starting X11 blindly works, as does switching to X11. I'm suspecting the recent tty/xterm changes, but I am not sure. uname -a: FreeBSD xxx.yyy 9.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT #17: Sat Jan 23 14:58:47 CET 2010 sheep@ubm.mine.nu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SUBMARINE_SMP i386 Relevant part of my rc.conf that I used to set console to 800x600: allscreens_flags="-g 100x37 VESA_800x600" Relevant kernel option that I use: # VESA support options VESA # raster display support for 800x600 resolution options SC_PIXEL_MODE Can anyone point me to a solution / is more info required? Bye, Marc
