Henrik, I wouldn't give up too early, :) ... the fact there is some change seems to be a sign you're on a good road :) did you check your directory for the consolefontchars? Here (Redhat 6.2) they're at /usr/lib/kbd/consolefonts/ and /usr/lib/kbd/consoletrans/ (If I remember correctly, these last fonts in /consoletrans/ didn't work ...) but you might want to check your /consolefonts/ directory ... find a font there that works on *your* keyboard or machine ... perhaps not such a good idea to copy my command from my first message literally, because I have probably a different keyboard here than you do ... I need German fonts, so the command consolechars -vf lat0-12 doesn't perhaps work on an American keyboard ... I'd try and play with the fonts in /consolefonts/ find your /consolefonts/ directory do a ls */consolefonts/ | less If I do here ls /usr/lib/kbd/consolefonts/ | less then I get stuff like this (just an excerpt): --------------------------- [ ... ] koi8u_8x14.psf.gz koi8u_8x16.psf.gz koi8u_8x8.psf.gz lat0-08.psf.gz lat0-10.psf.gz lat0-12.psf.gz lat0-14.psf.gz lat0-16.psf.gz [ ... ] ------------------------------- for example you see the lat0-12.psf.gz above: if you want to use this file for the command consolechars -vf lat0-12 you'll have to zap away everything after the '12' to use it for the command ... at least that's the way it works here :) ... I'd try and play with it ... I'd bet that the modified command from above will work for your console, too ... Let me know if I can help ...
