Stuart,
Consoles on i386 involve vga(4) and wscons(4), you just have text
modes to choose from which probably won't help you.

stretch the display to match the given resolution.
Unfortunatelly this BIOS is lousy and has no option to scale or strech
the VGA/screen size. Or I might be oblivious of it. But it really

Go into your bios config menu and look for an option to expand or
stretch the display to match the given resolution. The problem is
that flat panels are fixed frequency and so to do VGA text mode you
either have to tell the BIOS to scale things or you end up with a

Hi!
I4m having trouble viewing my console (term) with OBSD 3.7. The screen

there is a boot option or a configuration cha
