I have acquired a mo/bo with a built-in video adapter. Being that I have 768 megs of ram, I _know_ I have plenty of memory to allot to video. BIOS doesn't pass this on to FreeBSD.[ ... ]
I'm bringing up VESA from the kernal and it's giving it 16 megs of ram. Where can I read up on, or how can I increase this allotment?
I think you have an integrated video controller which uses main memory rather than having it's own dedicated VRAM. Look for an option in your BIOS config to adjust the size of the frame buffer.
You should adjust the amount of memory reserved for video to enough to handle whatever screen depth you want to run at, there isn't much point to allocating any more.
