As shown below. console is set to text.
"text" still gets you a bitmap graphics console in Solaris 11.
The old OpenSolaris equivalent of "text" is now "force-text".
This is kind of documented in the eeprom man page.
I changed console=force-text in two places. See below. I'm still getting:
bash-4.1$ svcs -xv
svc:/system/vbiosd:default (BIOS call emulation)
State: maintenance since January 2, 2012 06:09:37 PM EST
Reason: Start method exited with $SMF_EXIT_ERR_CONFIG.
See: http://sun.com/msg/SMF-8000-KS
See: man -M /usr/man -s 1M vbiosd
See: /var/svc/log/system-vbiosd:default.log
Impact: This service is not running.
So far every thing appears to run normal. I'm going to try different video
modes (basically using opengl)
Thanks for any help,
Paul
