Doesn't seem to work here. The small font I can live with, but if I enable KMS another problem appears. Initially the console type face is large. If I start X and go back to the console with ctrl-alt-F1 the type face is small. If I do this a second time the console is completely blank. I've tried different settings (Terminus, VGA) in dpkg-reconfigure but that seems to have no effect. -- Anthony Campbell - a...@acampbell.org.uk Microsoft-free zone - Using Debian GNU/Linux http://www.acampbell.org.uk - sample my ebooks at http://www.smashwords.com/profile/view/acampbell -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
