* Use vidcontrol(1).
* If you need VESA fonts, don't forget to 'kldload vesa'.
* /usr/sbin/vidfont has a nice menu for selecting fonts.
* All settings should go in /etc/rc.conf
  See /etc/defaults/rc.conf, section 'System console options'
  Just copy the lines you want to change from /etc/defaults/rc.conf
  to /etc/rc.conf and edit.
