Hi all,

I'm trying to get a smaller font in my text-consol= es (using vt) on my Ryzen 4700 and Vega10 Renoir - based laptop with a fres= h install of FreeBSD CURRENT from last week.

[...]=C2=A0


=
UEFI or BIOS setup?

UEFI
=C2=A0
With UEFI, sc and h= w.vga.textmode has no effect. With UEFI or BIOS+hw.vga.textmode=3D0, you ca= n set screen.font variable (empty value will cause the values list to be pr= inted), or use loadfont command with your custom font file (created with vt= fontcvt).

I added= 'screen.font=3D"8x16"' to /boot/loader.conf, worked like= a charm first time.=C2=A0

Many thanks= !
Michael
