Frame buffer console

Hello everyone,

I would like to have a high resolution console, but I don't want to run a
full blown X11 server.
If I'm not mistaken, FreeBSD already has a functional frame buffer, because
I am able to display a 32-bit screen saver in console mode.

Therefore, I would like to know if there was a "frame buffer-based
syscons". If not, how can I contribute?

Thanks for your answer!

Cheers,
Kip
