>Description:
I am using serial console, and video console, have encrypted gmirror
partition, encrypted with geli. it asks for password on boot, however
typing in the password fails every time .. says wrong password.  in
loader.conf:

/boot/loader.conf: 
console="comconsole,vidconsole"

when i comment this line out, and use only video or serial console,
geli works, accepts password, everything fine.
>How-To-Repeat:
use serial console on boot, enable the console="comconsole,vidconsole"
in /boot/loader.conf and try to type in a password for geli
