Install console-terminus console-tools Edit, as root, /etc/console-tools/config so that it looks roughly like this: # Turn on numlock by default #LEDS=+num APP_CHARSET_MAP=utf8 APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc1=utf8 APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc2=utf8 APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc2=utf8 SCREEN_FONT=Uni3-TerminusBold16 Then reboot and see if you like it. It seems to do most of the characters I'm interested in. If you want to try others, they are located in the path: dpkg -L console-terminus | grep Uni3-TerminusBold | less -- Chris. ====== I contend that we are both atheists.
