https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=289877 Bug ID: 289877 Summary: Color output depends on fonts presense / Slow console output. Product: Base System Version: 14.3-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: misc Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: h4ckee@proton.me Created attachment 264124 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=264124&action=edit screenshots Hi guys. 1. I noticed that when you delete fonts from /boot/fonts directory or rename that directory being in VBE console mode, it affects console colors. For example when font gets loaded text color is grey, but without loaded font it becomes bright white, and cyrillic letters are not visible, see attached screenshots. 2. If I enable hw.vga.textmode="1" in loader.conf, it doesn't allows me to use cyrillic font on console, but when I disable textmode with hw.vga.textmode="0", it allows me to use (built-in kernel) cyrillic, but console output slows down significantly, which negatively affects boot time. Is this expected behaviour? P.S. I've patched 14.3 with D50886, D50887 and D50888 (see Bug 288947).
