Can I change the video mode with the FreeBSD framebuffer console like linux? I'm trying to get used to FreeBSD from linux but I can't get a decent looking display without X. Some kind soul here at least told me my video card is broken and can't do VESA, otherwise I'd still be playing with vidcontrol. Anyway, with the linux fb I change to 128x48 upon boot. Can I do this with the FreeBSD fb? It seems to me like the linux framebuffer and fbsd framebuffer have the same name but do different things. Or I could just be totally confused.
