>Description:
In console mode.
# vidcontrol VGA_80x30 -m on
< blank screen >
usage: vidcontrol [-CdHLPpx] [-b color] [-c appearance] [-f [size] file]
[-g geometry] [-h size] [-i adapter | mode] [-l screen_map]
[-M char] [-m on | off] [-r foreground background]
[-S on | off] [-s number] [-T xterm | cons25] [-t N | off]
[mode] [foreground [background]] [show]
#
That usage message indicates some problem with options parsing ("-m on" is
probably not executed).
This entry seems to execute cleanly:
# vidcontrol -m on VGA_80x30
< blank screen >

as above
