(1) When I select chipset-based (Intel) video. (a) i915kms is NOT loaded via loader.conf -- small windows in middle of screen, but it works considerably well. Not as fast as text console,= but usable. When I starts X (NEW_XORG) and its load i915kms.so, I could switch back to text console which is full-resolution and fast now. (b) i915kms is LOADED with loader.conf. First messages from boot is in small window, and after that BLACK SCREEN and full hangup. It doesn't access HDD after that at all, so it looks like real hangup. (2) When I select GeForce video. Everything are in small window, but lower 2.5 lines are OUT OF SCREEN at all! I could type without seeing command-line. When I start X, it works (with nv driver) and I could switch to text console back, but it it same -- small, displaced window. After X finished, console is complete mess = -- large "sparse" letters, pink instead of "bold", only 1/4 of console in "window" and all other is cut out. --=20 // Black Lion AKA Lev Serebryakov
