Hi, I installed FreeBSD-14 on HP Z600 with an old Nvidia Quadro NVS 295 graphics card. The issue is that during boot VT console crashes, the kernel messages suddenly stop and the terminal is left frozen. The system still runs OK and I can ssh into it and use it. The workaround was to change from VT to SC console in /boot/loader.conf. Any idea why this is happening? Is NVS 295 too old to be used with the VT console? Thanks.
