hi, i recently installed freebsd 3.0-980311-snap.  all the docs say
freebsd supports monochrome video adapters (the really old stuff, with
very little ram and limited graphics support, ttl monitor output).
i plugged one in with an old mono monitor, works fine up until the kernel
is loaded.  on vga, text turns to bright white after this - in mono,
nothing more is displayed.  cursor just blinks and doesn't move.
the system boots and runs fine, but no output to the screen.
i recompiled the kernel with pcvt, booted from it, no change.
is this a new bug in freebsd 3.0?
(video card appears to have 4kbytes of ram, main chip number is tm6310)

thanks
