Hi,
I just upgraded a amd64 11.2 box to 12.1 using freebsd-update(8) and, apart the console screen, all is fine. The console works, as I can see a thin line brighter and changing when I type on keyboard and I can log in and type the dhclient command for it to get online (will write it to rc.conf now). But I cannot read a thing on the console.
It was fine and using the old character based console when running 11.2. And I have not found any mention on this on google and forum searches.
Is there a way to change it to a working resolution or old console?
I tried these options in /boot/loader.conf:
Using just one of them at a time. No good here
thanks,
none

Code:
kern.vt.fb.default_mode="1366x768"
hw.vga.textmode=1
