My point is just that we're better off using the native resolution, and a larger font, than stretching a 640x480 display. > The question is, what fonts does vt(4) use, and how do I choose a > font? The vidfont command complains of "getting keymap: Inappropriate > ioctl for device". vt(4) fonts are a new format, and we don't yet install a set of fonts, but there are some samples in http://people.freebsd.org/~emaste/newcons/ Setfont is currently a standalone tool in the src tree under tools/tools/vt/setfont (and is not installed). It will be merged into vidcontrol / vidfont in the future. > Do you mean to say I cannot switch vt from Latin to Cyrillic input yet? The kernel infrastructure is in place, but we don't ship UTF-8 keymaps yet, so you'd have to generate your own at the moment.
