How about anything working with svgalib? It always seems to fail with "don't have a graphics capable console and can't get one". I checked the FAQ, and it doesn't work if I run the test utilities that the port doesn't install, nor does it work if I run them as root with the console owned by root. I get the feeling there's a kernel option required for this that I've not got set. FWIW, mplayer works fine under X. But I need it for a system that I'd rather not install X on...
