            Bug ID: 261439
           Summary: vt newcons switches to graphics mode ignoring
                    hw.vga.textmode=3D"YES" setting
           Product: Base System
           Version: Unspecified
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: sblachmann@gmail.com

vt newcons ignores the setting in /boot/loader.conf:
hw.vga.textmode=3D"YES"

It switches to graphics mode anyway.
This might also be responsible for introduction of other problems, like
attempting console access from X with ctl-alt-Fn and getting garbage screen=
 as
result.
