Fournier" To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: moved to syscons from pcvt... Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi... Since everyone here tells me that pcvt is unstable and problematic, I've moved to syscons to see if it helps any with any of my problems...but... I don't have enough memory to run X, and for some reason, "vidcontrol VGA_80x50" gives me an error, and VGA_80x60 is hard on the eyes. Can someone that is using syscons, in 80x50 mode, send me what they have in rc.i386 to get you there, including which font you are running...none of the 8x8 fonts are easy on the eyes either. Marc G.
