This should be 'modules_3_18=' assuming that you are using kernel version 
3.18.7 or some such.  For the name of the module run 

 cd /usr/src/linux

 make menuconfig

and look at the help tab of the respective module, when it will mention the 
module name in lower case letters.

I am not sure what you are referring to here ... the penguins shown at the 
start of the booting process?  If yes, then these represent the number of CPU 
cores you have.

Before you start changing fonts you better configure X with the appropriate 
firmware, so that your console can use the KMS framebuffer to render fonts in 
console.  You can follow guidance here:
