Hi,
Is there any way of changing the console resolution in FreeBSD for AMD64?
AFAIK, the VESA option is only available for i386.

Yeah, I do SSH in most of the time, but with the vmware window open, I'm
always tempted to type commands in there. So I figured it'd be nice just to
be able to have a nice sized window to do it in.

Wouldn't it be easier to ssh in Windows in to your virtual machine?
This would certainly be a lot more effective at getting used to working
with FreeBSD remotely, if you are indeed replacing a Linux box that you
work on remotely.

Everything works fine if the laptop is not connected to the KVM. I can

Hey,
1) Are true bitmapped graphical consoles possible in freebsd, I mean at

2) If not, is a "Linux Vesafb" like driver planned for freebsd future
releases?
