vt console

[cpghost]

Hi!
builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC
I am searching still on web for the answer why I cannot have the same
resolution in console as I have on KDE when I swith from KDE to console (I had
kern.vty="vt"

On my system, I have this in my /boot/loader.conf:

kern.vty="vt"
kern.vt.fb.default_mode="1280x1024"

The console switches to higher resolution as soon as I *manually*

# kldload radeonkms

which pulls in this, among others:

13 1 0xffffffff82039000 1165b3 radeonkms.ko
18 1 0xffffffff821a9000 1070 radeonkmsfw_RS780_pfp.ko
19 1 0xffffffff821ab000 5b6e radeonkmsfw_RS780_me.ko
20 1 0xffffffff821b1000 1369 radeonkmsfw_R600_rlc.ko

after this, I can freely switch from X to console, and the console
stays in high res mode too.

Hope it helps...

I had default_mode also in the /boot/loader.conf but didn't work.  I
didn't have problem on FreeBSD 10.2-RELEASE (amd64) but when I  upgrade
to 10.3-RELEASE stopped working. I did new install of FreeBSD 10.3-
RELEASE(amd64) and result is the same: doesn't work.

Thank you anyway.
