Fonts after compiling the kernel


Hey.
After I compile the kernel the fonts in the console are way to big.
with setconsolefont i cant seem to change the size of the fonts.
How can I change the size as it was with the original kernel.
im using slackware 9.1

Do you have compiled framebuffer support? Without framebuffer support you get resolution 640*480 and really big fonts

How is it possible to change the refresh rate in the console?
I was using 1024 resolution an the refresh rate was 60hz while when in standard mode the refresh rate is 70.
