Hello! Pretty much immediately after the beastie prompt, I experience some odd scrolling behavior: http://files.kyle-evans.net/vt_scrolling.mp4 (12.5 MB) I've experienced this with 11.0-RC1 install media, as well as setting kern.vty=vt on a working 10.3-RELEASE system. Machine is a Dell Optiplex 160 w/ an Intel Atom 330. pciconf output: root@slowbro:~ # pciconf -lv hostb0@pci0:0:0:0: class=0x060000 card=0x06711039 chip=0x06711039 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]' device = '671MX' class = bridge subclass = HOST-PCI pcib1@pci0:0:1:0: class=0x060400 card=0x00000000 chip=0x00031039 rev=0x00 hdr=0x01 vendor = 'Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]' device = 'AGP Port (virtual PCI-to-PCI bridge)' class = bridge subclass = PCI-PCI isab0@pci0:0:2:0: class=0x060100 card=0x00000000 chip=0x09681039 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]' device = 'SiS968 [MuTIOL Media IO]' class = bridge subclass = PCI-ISA ohci0@pci0:0:3:0: class=0x0c0310 card=0x02c31028 chip=0x70011039 rev=0x0f hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]' device = 'USB 1.1 Controller' class = serial bus subclass = USB ohci1@pci0:0:3:1: class=0x0c0310 card=0x02c31028 chip=0x70011039 rev=0x0f hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]' device = 'USB 1.1 Controller' class = serial bus subclass = USB ehci0@pci0:0:3:3: class=0x0c0320 card=0x02c31028 chip=0x70021039 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]' device = 'USB 2.0 Controller' class = serial bus subclass = USB atapci0@pci0:0:5:0: class=0x010187 card=0x02c31028 chip=0x11831039 rev=0x03 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]' device = 'SATA Controller / IDE mode' class = mass storage subclass = ATA pcib2@pci0:0:6:0: class=0x060400 card=0x00041039 chip=0x000a1039 rev=0x00 hdr=0x01 vendor = 'Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]' device = 'PCI-to-PCI bridge' class = bridge subclass = PCI-PCI pcib3@pci0:0:7:0: class=0x060400 card=0x00041039 chip=0x000a1039 rev=0x00 hdr=0x01 vendor = 'Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]' device = 'PCI-to-PCI bridge' class = bridge subclass = PCI-PCI hdac0@pci0:0:15:0: class=0x040300 card=0x02c31028 chip=0x75021039 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]' device = 'Azalia Audio Controller' class = multimedia subclass = HDA vgapci0@pci0:1:0:0: class=0x030000 card=0x02c31028 chip=0x63511039 rev=0x10 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]' device = '771/671 PCIE VGA Display Adapter' class = display subclass = VGA bge0@pci0:2:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x02c31028 chip=0x168414e4 rev=0x10 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Broadcom Corporation' device = 'NetXtreme BCM5764M Gigabit Ethernet PCIe' class = network subclass = ethernet none0@pci0:3:0:0: class=0x028000 card=0x000c1028 chip=0x431514e4 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Broadcom Corporation' device = 'BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY' class = network
Apologies- missed some details: * The scrolling indeed never stops -- the system is effectively unusable at the local console * The bsdinstall dialog box is also scrolling quickly, similarly to the text in the picture, making for an incredibly uncomfortable bsdinstall experience.
Also relevant- I've just discovered this only happens with with hw.vga.textmode=0. Is this actually a bug, then, or perhaps something not supported?
Is this still reproducible for you? I haven't observed this on any of my hardware.
Oh yeah, still reproducible... I was trying to track this down the other week, but ran out of time.
