I am trying to run pcvt in 132 column mode under FreeBSD 2.1 as the 
80column limit on the standard syscons driver is a waste on my 17" screen.

pcvt seems to be working except for a couple of things.

Underlined text comes out as white text on an orange background with no
underline at all.

Bold text comes out as white text on a blue background.

Any ideas on how to get these working right?

Anyone know how to get coloured text on the 132 x 40 screen?

scon -p does not seem to do anything.

Also has anyone hacked the keyboard setup so that you can switch consoles
with alt+F<n> instead of ctrl+alt+F<n> ?
