I'd just like to be able to type commands without having them wrap to the next line. Same goes to compiling software: More screen space = Less data flying by at once = More time to read whatever's going on, let it be errors, warnings, whatever.
And in my case, because I'm running it in VMWare at the moment due to the fact that I'm new to BSD and I'd like to learn before I put it into production, the console window barely fills the VMWare window, so I'm wasting a whole lot of space. Half the screen is just blank. On 4/2/07, Daniel O'Connor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I don't understand why people who want high resolution consoles don't run X. It is a *lot* faster for the vast majority of cards (ie ones which aren't doing VESA modes). Scrolling a screen full of text at a decent resolution using VESA == slideshow.
