hi!
I have done some work to make font pickup a bit smarter (hopefully better;),
but my own ability to test is limited to one bugged supermicro and one MBP with
retina display…
The phab link ishttps://reviews.freebsd.org/D28849
<https://reviews.freebsd.org/D28849>
I have built loader binaries as well (bios and uefi):
loader_lua<http://148-52-235-80.sta.estpak.ee/loader_lua>
loader_lua.efi<http://148-52-235-80.sta.estpak.ee/loader_lua.efi>
To test, you should remove screen.font= line from loader.conf and test with
different resolutions.
thanks,

Hi Toomas,
I tested on five different setups.
Surface Pro 10.6"@1920x1080:
The loader menu looks different, the "FreeBSD" text is on the right side
of the screen.
Otherwise, the font size is what I would call a normal size.
Acer laptop 11.6"@1366x768:
Menu looks fine. Almost fills the entire screen.
The font feels a little too big.
Thinkpad built in 13"@1920x1080:
Menu looks fine, but a little slow.
The font size is a little to big for my liking. When drm loads and
mirrors the screen to my external 27" it looks comically large.
Thinkpad external 24"@1920x1200:
Menu looks OK, uses about a quarter of the screen.
Font size is fine, but once drm loads it looks a bit squeezed (like thin
and tall), but I guess that's drm detecting the built in 1920x1080, and
the external display is stretched.
Thinkpad external 27"@3840x2160:
Menu looks OK, uses about a quarter of the screen.
Font size is fine.
Looking at the dmesg though, it says: VT(efifb): resolution 1920x1080
