This bug reported to a FreeBSD mailing list by Thomas Hoffmann in 2014 still
exists.

With syscons, and the nvidia kernel module, vidcontrol -i mode lists a range of
available video modes.  

With vt, vidcontrol -i mode lists modes with zero in all fields (except for
negative memory window sizes), and programs that make the same ioctl() call
themselves in order to determine available video modes either complain about no
video modes or crash with division by zero errors and suchlike.
