Are you sure? On my T43, I lose exactly 23 lines at the point my screen switches from it's default mode. Note that I need to use VESA and SC_PIXEL_MODE on this system. That may relate to the problem. > If you need more lines in buffer (esp. to supress losing lines) > you can change the default (200 lines) in your kernels. > take a look at /usr/src/sys/conf/NOTES and > /usr/src/i386/conf/NOTES, search "SC*BUFFER" > but keep in mind this can make a "slideshow" like > teleporting on your console > :-D (remembers me to ego-shooters and jump'n'run games) I always run a 2000 line scrollback buffer. 200 won't make it to the start of my boot. And, it's SC_HISTORY_SIZE. I'm unclear as to what you refer to as 'slideshow" like teleporting', though. -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
