It's probably the /etc/rc.d/init.d/console script. It loads variables from /etc/sysconfig/console which then changes the font. You'll need to take a look through the console fonts. http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/chapter07/console.html [1] not exactly. loading the consolefonts i just forgot to mention. should be inserted as 3.1) my settings: UNICODE="1" KEYMAP="de_CH-latin1" LEGACY_CHARSET="iso-8859-15" FONT="lat9w-16 -m 8859-15 -u lat1" looking into /lib/kbd/consolefonts, i can't find any font bigger than -16, thus i already load the biggest font available... or do you have me a hint, how to build bigger fonts?? i guess lat9w-32 would be fine... nevertheless, my problem on the core-i3 with integrated graphics is, there is NO OUTPUT AT ALL, not before and not after loading the console-fonts: i started the system without 'nomodeset' to runlevel 3 (without x) thus having just the black on black font ;) then i connected from another machine with ssh. meanwhile i logged in (blind). ps showed my i'm logged in on tty1 - fine. now i loaded different fonts from the ssh connection and typed 'reset' blind on the black/black console. nothing happend at all. nevertheless, thanks for your hint tobias Links: ------ [1] http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/chapter07/console.html
