For example, my main monitor is 1600x1200. On that I sometimes use
video=800x600 (radeon, kms, 8x16 console font).
Forgot to add that before I adapted the 12x22 font for UTF-8 I am
fairly sure I sometimes used "video=1024x768" on this 1600x1200
monitor with an 8x16 console font.
I don't mess with grub's fonts. It's only on the screen for 5 seconds (default)
and I usually take the default anyway.
For the kernel messages, I get a small font, but change that in the boot
scripts:
In either /etc/sysconfig/rc.site (my preference) or /etc/sysconfig/console I set
FONT=ter-128n. That is a terminus font from
http://terminus-font.sourceforge.net/. They have a lot of sizes available.
"Terminus Font is a clean, fixed width bitmap font, designed for long (8 and
more hours per day) work with computers. Version 4.39 contains 891 characters,
covers about 120 language sets and supports ISO8859-1/2/5/7/9/13/15/16,
Paratype-PT154/PT254, KOI8-R/U/E/F, Esperanto, many IBM, Windows and Macintosh
code pages, as well as the IBM VGA, vt100 and xterm pseudographic characters."
