@Sergei_Shablovsky said in Screen fonts & mode in local terminal issue: Already have in /etc/loader.conf :charset=UTF-8: :lang=en_US.UTF-8: :setenv=LC_COLLATE=C: :umask=022: But unsuccessfully, - the result You able to see above…. Those are not loader.conf configuration directives, those look like /etc/login.conf configuration. (And read the note at the top of that file, especially the part where you have to run cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf after any edits) It does seem like you have some sort of issue/mismatch with UTF-8 handling somewhere, but it's hard to say exactly where. I have no issues with UTF-8 in my terminals over serial or SSH but I have no idea what that KVM setup might be doing.
