You can use man -k linux and man -k freebsd and man -k console...
But the documentation is probably not great at places. For the
linux/freebsd compat there is a package you can install in our
packages collection (in /usr/pkgsrc/emulators{freebsd*,linux*}.
For the vt stuff, you need to build a kernel with wscons support.
