            Bug ID: 288947
           Summary: kern.vt.color.xxx.rgb and locale don't wotk with
                    "WITHOUT_LOADER_BIOS_TEXTONLY"
           Product: Base System
           Version: 14.3-RELEASE
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc

Hi.
I noticed that by default these variables
kern.vt.color.0.rgb...kern.vt.color.15.rgb work fine, but when I enabled this
option WITHOUT_LOADER_BIOS_TEXTONLY=YES in src.conf they stopped working. While
other variables remained untouched.
kenv shows them as not defined, though they are set in /boot/loader.conf
kern.vt.color.0.rgb=""
kern.vt.color.1.rgb=""
kern.vt.color.2.rgb=""
...

Also I set them in kernel config file over "envvar" but they don't work there
also.
Also I've noticed that locale (ru_RU.UTF-8) switching doesn't work anymore
(Terminus font), now (with WITHOUT_LOADER_BIOS_TEXTONLY=YES) I get ??? instead
of cyrillic letters.
Best regards,
Sergey.
