NetBSD 8.0 RC1 issue



I'm a little late in trying 8.0 ... but I just tried to install 8.0 RC1 on a
Dell Optiplex 745.   During boot it blanks the display and nothing can
be seen on the display from that point on.  

The vga/display parts of the dmesg from 6.1.5 says:

vga1 at pci0 dev 2 function 0: vendor 0x8086 product 0x2992 (rev. 0x02)
vga1: WARNING: ignoring 64-bit BAR @ 0x18
wsdisplay0 at vga1 kbdmux 1: console (80x25, vt100 emulation)
wsmux1: connecting to wsdisplay0
i915drm0 at vga1: Intel i965Q
i915drm0: AGP at 0xc0000000 256MB
i915drm0: Initialized i915 1.6.0 20080730
vendor 0x8086 product 0x2993 (miscellaneous display, revision 0x02) at pci0 dev 2 function 1 not configured

The monitor is  1920x1200 dell.

I was expecting it to switch from large characters to small characters at
that point like it does on other recent hardware using similar sized monitors.
