I don't actually have an issue with either. although:

"After booting, all colors can be changed using the
syscons.kattr sysctl."

% sysctl -a | grep syscons
hw.syscons.sc_no_suspend_vtswitch: 0
hw.syscons.kbd_debug: 1
hw.syscons.kbd_reboot: 1
hw.syscons.bell: 1
hw.syscons.saver.keybonly: 0

%

Also, both sc and vt are compiled into GENERIC.

Is it just a matter of putting "syscons=[sc|vt]" in loader.conf

to select whatever driver?
