Summary: Console missing during bootup on Sony Picturebook in 5.0

Description toasty 2003-01-20 02:00:18 UTC 
About 70% of the time when booting up, I don't get any console from after
the boot loader is finished until the login: prompt.

Note this isn't the same as kern/45574, I eventually do get a login prompt,
it sounds like he does not.

When it works/doesn't work, I don't see any difference in the dmesg output,
so that's not too useful, and I haven't found any kind of pattern as to why
it works sometimes. A GENERIC kernel also exhibits this behavior, and this
works fine in 4.7.

On a good note, accelerated XFree86 works great, even with the funky aspect
ratio of the monitor.

Hello, sorry to repeat Kris' question again, can you tell 
me whether we are still facing this problem on a recent 
release of FreeBSD ? (6.X)
