Hi,
This is likely caused by changes in vt(4) introduced in FreeBSD-11. Most
importantly, the new default is to use kernel mode setting which works
only limitedly well with nvidia's drivers. The default vt mode of
FreeBSD-10 can be restored by setting
hw.vga.textmode=1
in /boot/loader.conf.
Yours,
Alonso
