I noticed the same thing. It either has always happened for me, or it |
| 10 |
started when I started adding the framebuffer stuff. I worked around it by |

using the default console font. Do this by commenting out the CONSOLEFONT |
| 12 |
line in rc.conf. |

I suspect that it has something to do with the framebuffer console drivers. |
