Right... in my kernel config file:
device sc0 at isa? port "IO_KBD" tty irq 1 vector scintr
options HARDFONTS
options "MAXCONS=8"
The only part of -current I'm using right now are the ncr.c and pci.c
devices drivers. Everything else is from the 950210 snapshot. 50-line mode,
via 'vidcontrol' gives me an "Cannot set videomode: Invalid argument" error,
yet that mode is listed in the help screen. Setting the console to 30 lines
works, however. Was vidcontrol updated between the 950202 and 950210
snapshots? It used to work for me, before the most recent snapshot.
