Booting fonts/ fonts on a non gui session
 

Hi,

I am using Ubuntu 10.04, and sometimes I just need the boot window (ie. a no gui environment through Ctrl+Alt+F?.)
My question is how to control the window fonts size?

Thanks

Frankly, I wasn't sure you could change the fonts in text mode. I always assumed they were fixed.

I was wrong.

You SHOULD be able to change them, with "setfont":
