Hi all,

I'm trying to get a smaller font in my text-consoles (usi= ng vt) on my Ryzen 4700 and Vega10 Renoir - based laptop with a fresh insta= ll of FreeBSD CURRENT from last week.

[...]=C2=A0


UEFI or BIOS setup?

UEFI
=C2=A0
With UEFI, sc and hw.vga.textmode has no effect. = With UEFI or BIOS+hw.vga.textmode=3D0, you can set screen.font variable (em= pty value will cause the values list to be printed), or use loadfont comman= d with your custom font file (created with vtfontcvt).

I added 'screen.font=3D"8x16"' to /boot/loa= der.conf, worked like a charm first time.=C2=A0

Many thanks!
Michael
