You may need to load an 8x8 font too. You can also set some options in /etc/rc.conf to have vidcontrol kick it into that mode automatically on startup. -michel On Sun, Aug 26, 2001 at 05:17:08PM -0700, Jim Mock wrote: > I forgot to mention this in my last message... does anyone know how to > get the console to use the whole screen?
