The big news is that people running the amd64 version of FreeBSD can now use vidcontrol to create high-resolution text consoles (1024x768 for example), instead of the generic 80x25 console.

This has absolutely nothing to do with X11, graphics drivers, fall-back, etc.

This is only about the text-mode console.
