Raspberry Pi terminal resolution

Hello there,

Before to use NetBSD, I was on Arch Linux on my Raspberry Pi 2 and, because I use it directly on a 1920x1080 TV via HDMI, I had to modify a file called config.txt to set the right resolution.

Now I am using NetBSD and I saw that there was the same problem as GNU/Linux : The screen resolution wasn't correct BUT, because it is not GNU/Linux, I thought that it was different but in fact it is not.

So, to correct it, you just have to create the file named config.txt inside /boot and paste this :

sdtv_mode=2
sdtv_aspect=3
hdmi_group=1
hdmi_mode=16
disable_overscan=1

then reboot.

A simple copy and paste can make it too :

echo -e "

sdtv_mode=2\nsdtv_aspect=3\nhdmi_group=1\nhdmi_mode=16\ndisable_overscan=1" > /boot/config.txt && reboot

Maybe it could be a good idea to add this to the NetBSD Raspberry Pi page https://wiki.netbsd.org/ports/evbarm/raspberry_pi/
