Is the font itself built fine reproducibly? For now, assuming it's OK here. And also assuming the problem is in console (vty) after loader invoked kernel. IIRC, there are codes to default character screen to 80x25 and choosing the font that best fits with it on maximum resolution of the computer in vt, but I've lost track of them. If the resolution is properly set as you want and well fitting font is installed, registered but not chosen correctly, there could be issues around the codes. To workaround, you can set allscreens_flags="-f /path/to/your/font/fontfile.fnt" in your /etc/rc.conf[.local]. If you don't want all vtys to be same configuration, you can put vidcontrol -f /path/to/your/font/fontfile.fnt instead. FYI: I have the codes below (remnant from transitional period from sc to vt). if [ "vt" = `sysctl -n -q kern.vty` ] then keymap="jp.kbd" if [ -r /usr/share/vt/fonts/b16.fnt ] ; then allscreens_flags="-f /usr/share/vt/fonts/b16.fnt" fi else keymap="jp.106.kbd" fi -- Tomoaki AOKI <junch...@dec.sakura.ne.jp>
