+.Pp
+Configure screen 1 (i.e. the second), it will get the type
+.Dq 80x50
+and use the VT100 terminal emulation. (Note:
+.Dq 80x50
+is a screen type offered by the
+.Xr vga 4
+display driver. In this particular case, an 8x8-font must be loaded
+before to make the screen useful. See
+.Xr wsfontload 8 .)
+.Sh BUGS
+There should be an easy way to get a list of the screen types available
+on a display, and of the emulations supported by the kernel.
