https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=210434 Bug ID: 210434 Summary: vt(4) default graph mode settings incorrect Product: Base System Version: 11.0-CURRENT Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Keywords: vt Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: kern Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: joeb1@a1poweruser.com Using vt graph mode as the default console driver effects every 11.0 user. It completely changes the FreeBSD experience. It's detrimental to the public relations and the professional image of FreeBSD to publish the 11.0-RELEASE using vt with it's current default setting of graph mode. In graph mode the look of everything shown on the console is different than what the user is accustomed to seeing and when switching between virtual consoles there is a 4 second hesitation. vt should default to hw.vga.textmode=1 mode to be consistent with previous RELEASE versions of FreeBSD in what the console display looks like to the user. Text mode returns the console behavior look and feel to be just like the (sc(4) console and the hesitation when switching between virtual consoles no longer happens. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
