>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2.8-STABLE i386
>Environment:

FreeBSD 2.2.8-STABLE

>Description:

There is now a "vidcontrol all screens knob" in /etc/rc.conf for
setting vidcontrol modes for all /dev/vty* during bootup.
The way it is implemented in /etc/rc.i386 is buggy - it's not setting
colours as intended.

>How-To-Repeat:

Put the following line

allscreens_flags="-r yellow green -m on green black"	# mode for all screens

into /etc/rc.conf and reboot. (Make sure to have an up to date /etc/rc.i386.)

>Fix:
