How can I get >the >virtual console to take up the whole screen? Use "vidcontrol -i mode" to list modes then set the one you like. You could also compile the new kernel with options VESA options SC_PIXEL_MODE to use hi-res modes in console, and probably add options SC_NORM_ATTR=(FG_LIGHTGREEN|BG_BLACK) options SC_NORM_REV_ATTR=(FG_BLACK|BG_GREEN) options SC_KERNEL_CONS_ATTR=(FG_WHITE|BG_BLACK) options SC_KERNEL_CONS_REV_ATTR=(FG_BLACK|BG_GREEN) to have cool green text on black background :) Hope this helps Bob Goodman -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Note: This signature can be verified at https://www.hushtools.com/verify Version: Hush 2.5 wkYEARECAAYFAkROkA8ACgkQAQ09syE0bn7xnACfVGND4UlWGGjlKpNwWKhvbPDdgRwA nRkwi1OA7lUTADSg/pU9ldN8F224 =60cA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Concerned about your privacy?
