Wyse Z90D7 Scrambled video on boot up re-visited...

Re: How to set boot up display resolution ?
Scrambled video display on boot up. An old topic I gave up with a while back but has recently given me some grief again.
I tried the last reply from 'jimp' in the old topic and it now works :-)
Edit (or create) '/boot/loader.conf.local' and add ....
efi_max_resolution="800x600"
exec="gop set 8"... not sure which line works, the important thing is I now have a usable display on every boot - belated thanks to 'jimp' for the suggestion :-)
... and yes I did replace IpFire with pfSense running on the Wyse Z90D7 box linked with four vlans to a D-Link 5 port managed switch (TL-SG105E).
Reference here :

...it worked extremely well running four local sub-nets, Wifi and Guest Wifi until the switch failed, hence the reason to re-visit the video problem !!
Hope this helps others with the same problem.
