I built my kernel with OPTIONS VESA and OPTIONS SC_PIXEL_MODE. I have tried two methods. The first was to put 0x0080 in the device.hints file for SC. That gave me a blank screen upon startup. I also tried putting into /usr/local/etc/rc.d the vidcontrol command "vidcontrol -g 100x37 VESA_800x600. That gave me a blank screen at the end of the bootup. Is this functionality broken in -current, or am I doing something wrong?
