            Bug ID: 202538
           Summary: "i915kms_load="YES"" in /boot/loader.conf panics
                    kernel in 10.1
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.1-RELEASE
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: b0bfreebsd@gmail.com

My HW: AMD FX-8300 3.3GHz Eight-Core OEM CPU/Asus M5A78L-M/USB3 mATX MB/8GB
DDR3 1866 Kingston HyperX Fury Red Memory/128GB Adata Premier Pro SSD/CPU
Cooler

My dilemma: When I installed 10.1 I realized that I had no virtual terminals. I
researched this and realized that I needed to add a few things into my
/boot/loader.conf to correct this. This is what I added:
root@hendrix:/boot # cat loader.conf
hw.vga.textmode=1
kern.vty=vt
# i915kms_load="YES"
kern.vt.fb.default_mode="640x480"
sem_load="YES"
snd_driver_load="YES"

The relevant issue is that when I switch to a virtual terminal the typeface is
far too small, so I was looking to increase the Text Size. In my research it
was advised to add "i915kms_load="YES"" ... but after doing that, which did NOT
fix my ability to modify the Text Size, I realized that this consistently
Panicked my Kernel after 10 minutes.

I thought I might bring this to your attention.

Thank you for your time.
