Hi,
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!!
this for the freebsd5 branch only!!!!
Here is how to apply the patch to get the "long awaited" high console text modes under freebsd!
I actually use it on my nc6000 hp laptop with the following mode:
1400x1050x16
damm .. really nice ;-))
This patch is actually for freebsd current but it works (for me) with 5-stable and may be "release" or earlier versions (5.X) too.
ONCE AGAIN BE WARNED!! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
Let's go:
1) Get the patch here:
http://people.freebsd.org/~delphij/vesa/patchset-highres.20050522
2) Remove the lines which are not required for us and rename the patch we will use to syscons.patch:
split -p "Index: usr.sbin" patchset-highres.20050522 && mv xaa syscons.patch
3) backup and patch your local (stable) sources: (/usr/src/sys/dev/syscons - will be patched)
cp -Rp /usr/src/sys/dev/syscons /usr/src/sys/dev/BAK.syscons
cd /usr/src
patch
