On my Alder lake laptop, the resolution from grub does carry to wscons. How do you set the resolution in grub? I boot as follows: insmod ufs insmod part_gpt set gfxpayload=2560x1440,1920x1080,1024x768 set root=(hd1,gpt2) knetbsd /netbsd --root=dk1 boot P.S. I don't actually know anything about NetBSD graphics, but I have managed to get this to work. -- luna
