I have also had this problem with every FC1 box I have built and run
Asterisk on.
I usually don't touch the console of linux boxes, but it would be nice
to just ALT-F9 and leave that console up eternally. But I got the same
unreadable text for the colored text, and sometimes even non colored
lines.
This is what I did to resolve this. Edit /etc/sysconfig/i18n and change
the SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 to SYSFONT=lat0-sun16. This worked
for me in the US.
If you look in /lib/kbd/consolefonts you will see a listing of all the
console fonts that FC1 comes with.

I've just set up a new box with FC1+updates and the latest Stable
Asterisk from CVS.
Asterisk is started with the default safe_asterisk script with a
console on TTY9.
The coloured text on this console is made up of weird characters
instead of normal. Please see http://www.softins.co.uk/dsc00018.jpg
for an example.
If I do asterisk -rv on a normal login, either via the console
or an xterm, the text appears correctly.
For some reason it appears that the program is using Cyrilic
characters.
You should see if the init.d script you are using to start Asterisk is
changing the default font set from ISO-8859-1 to -5 or something else.
Maybe when you installed Fedora you checked that you wanted support
for
Russian.
No, when I installed the OS, I selected only English(Great Britain).
Only some of the characters appear to be Cyrillic.
The point is, only the coloured text is affected: the normal text is OK.
Anyone actually seen this behaviour before?
Cheers
Tony
