Good point. I forget that someone told me about that later. I don't quite agree with your last crack, though, because I think my hack, which was submitted as a PR patch, should have avoided the need for this sub-thread and the need for other people to run into this dependency the hard way and the need to learn the vesa_load thing and the (sort of) need to remove it again after they stop using "132" fonts. But my PR has apparently been shelved because someone is hoping that some C programmer will eventually change vidcontrol instead. Seems like a poor use of programmer resources, assuming it will ever happen, but it's not my call. Any volunteers? It's PR 43500.
