Not yet, had no time yet, but testing again with 14 and current is on my todo
list, as I have read some reports that suspend/resume now works with Nvidia+vt.
As I would like to drop SC from my scripts to not have to maintain different
handling for two consoles SC (for Nvidia+Matrox) and vt (Intel, AMD).

So I need to also test whether the proposed fix for Matrox (see
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=270509#c29) works, and
whether it is already committed/incorporated, as Matrox is a very common
onboard graphics chip for Supermicro and other server boards.

I will set up a dedicated test PC for these graphics card tests and report
back.

Well, when using vt in text mode, it does make a difference if vesa.ko is
loaded or not.

Because, if it is loaded, then the console display reappears showing the
shutdown proceeding when pressing the power button after resuming with a dark
screen instead of X Window.
If it is not loaded, there is no displaying of the shutdown proceeds, screen
stays dark until power off.

If vt is in graphics mode, screen always stays dark until power off, then there
is no difference of having vesa loaded or not.

(Just tested this using SiS and S3 graphics cards. More tests with other
graphics cards follow.)

BTW, for sc, vesa has to be loaded for successful resume, *except* for Nvidia
cards.
As said, I'll be doing more tests later to understand the patterns, will report
back.

Note that vesa.ko has no relationship with vt, so it does not matter if it is
loaded or not

Just to mention, vt newcons fails no matter whether vesa.ko is loaded or not.
Setting hw.vga.textmode="YES" or not also has no effect.
OS used for testing is 13.0-RELEASE-p6 on amd64.

Bug ID: 261440
   Summary: vt newcons breaks suspend/resume for all graphics
cards that do not use KMS drivers
   Product: Base System
   Version: Unspecified
  Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
  Severity: Affects Many People
  Priority: ---
 Component: kern
  Assignee: b...@freebsd.org
  Reporter: sblachm...@gmail.com

vt newcons breaks resuming from S3 suspend for all graphics cards except those
being supported by i915kms, radeonkms and amdgpu.
Screen is black at resuming.

With sc resuming works just fine.
It does not matter whether the open-source freedesktop drivers are being used
(pre-radeonkms ATI graphics cards, Matrox, S3, ...) or the proprietary nvidia
drivers, sc handles them well, unlike vt.
