Konnichiwa, probably my English contain mistakes, fogive. I'm looking for the way to adjust text console pixel size.
I uses SONY laptop PC, PCG-FX77Z/BP, a little bit obsolete Athlon M machine. It must be pleasure for me that this has SXGA+(1400x1050) color LCD, but this make me mad. When I uses preinstalled windows XP, the symptom submerged. Next, When I started to use Debian GNU/Linux, I noticed about some annoying lines next to the pointer, and/or somewhere else in LCD. Then I have very in trouble, but solved with vga option. Setting and passing vga=834 option to kernel, the text console and boot message became in 1400x1050 mode, and it didn't conflict with X. Without conflict between X and text console in pixel, the annoying lines dissapear. Yes, this hack go well. I got huge space in console and X is not make me mad. Now, I want to this again in OpenBSD. I wanted to much know about BSDs, and OpenBSD atracted me. As I thought, X in OpenBSD has the line next to the pointer. It perhaps be sync error. Even if I uses cool Afterstep, it make me disapointed. But It seems OpenBSD has no flame buffer, or vga-like option. I tried to use wsconscfg, but not succeeded. I runed this in ttyC0 as root: wsfontload -h 8 -e ibm /usr/share/misc/pcvtfonts/vt220l.808 wsconscfg -dF 5 wsconscfg -t 80x50 5 this was in FAQ7.5 Code. But I have found just only destroyed console at ttyC5. Man page of wsconscfg is more confusing. My quetion is below: Can I configure the text terminal size and boot message size? How should I so? In case not, what is workaround? Please help me kindly. Regards. Iori Yoneji, Shibuya Makuhari high school student.
