OK. So I borrowed a sun ultra 10 workstation. Installed bsd on it
without a problem through serial console but I noticed someting
interesting and I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix this. 
When I first got it and started playing with it I noticed that the
system console displayed the console with extremely oversized fonts.
Everything at the console seemed extremely blown up. First I thought it
was the openboot firmware. So i went into the firmware and configured
the rows and columns to be 34x80. reset the machine ... didn't work.
then i reset openboot to factory defaults. then i changed my vga output
to another monitor. nothing changed. anybody know why the system console
could be displaying such a disproportionately large system console.
