31 It has something to do with EFI.
32 I did not configure the system to use EFI with grub. When the system boots the fonts on the screen are large. It display on the screen everything up the point:
33 ...
34 mounting misc binary format filesystem ..... [OK]
35
36 at this point the fonts are changed and the screen is not not displaying anything it looks like it is frozen and the is no "login" prompt.
37 When I enable XDM the boot login shows up and I can long-in via "slim" login manager.
38
39 In make.conf:
40 ...
41 INPUT_DEVICES="evdev"
42 VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia"
43
44 Does it have something to do with "x11-base/xorg-server" or "nvidia" driver?
45 How to configure the system so it will display/switch the fonts during boot on the screen?
