[GLLUG] FreeBSD console res

[Adam McDougall]

You probably need to kldload vesa or have it in your kernel,
then use vidcontrol mode 132x60 or VESA_800x600, something like
that.  I believe certain modes require a nondefault font to 
be loaded with vidcontrol -f  first.  As always, see the 
manpage.  You may not be able to acheive as high of a resolution
as you want, but you should be able to improve on 80x25.

  Does anyone know how/where to up the resolution of the console on 
  FreeBSD?  I did a quick google with no luck.  Its currently at the 
  default 640x480, and I'd like to kick it up to 1280x1024 or something. 
  Thanks.
