If you are using openrc, it contains /etc/conf.d/consolefont and /etc/init.d/consolefont which you can use to automatically override with a font of your own choosing at each reboot. I booted install-cd, and console font there looks normal. Then I booted my system again, and console font looks ugly. I checked /etc/conf.d/consolefont: both install-cd and my system use "default8x16". The only difference was that my freshly installed system did not have corresponding start-up script activated. So all I had to do was: # rc-update add consolefont boot Now font in console looks normal. Thanks! Jarry -- ___ This mailbox accepts e-mails only from selected mailing-lists!

Maybe the default font in your video card is funny. It seems they are all different. You can manually set a new font using the "setfont" program which comes from the sys-apps/kbd package. If you are using openrc, it contains /etc/conf.d/consolefont and /etc/init.d/consolefont which you can use to automatically override with a font of your own choosing at each reboot. I personally use "ter-112n" from the package media-fonts/terminus-font on my console.

If by "console" you mean the console, you can compile a custom kernel with the console font you desire. If you mean a terminal emulator, such as xterm, you can usually use -fn lucidasanstypewriter-10 or -fn ""-*-*-medium-r-*-*-*-80-100-100-*-*-*-*" or some similar nonsense. x11-apps/xfontsel can help with finding font names.

[gentoo-user] Strange console font: "m" looks like small "M"
Hi, I just installed Gentoo on one box and noticed one strange thing when I'm in console: Small letter "m" looks more like "M" reduced in size. And small "w" looks more like small and rotated "M". How can I fix it??? Jarry -- ___ This mailbox accepts e-mails only from selected mailing-lists! Everything else is considered to be spam and therefore deleted.

[gentoo-user] System cold crashing when too much memory is used?
hi, I am running a Xen host with gentoo sources 3.4.9. I've had issues that the box cold reboots on me and suspected memory use. Today I ran the following little perl script: my $a = "a" x 1000; $b = $a x 1000; while(1) { $b .= $b; } 2 Minutes about 2G swapped out (Dom0 has about 6GB of ram and lots of swap) and boom cold boot. No panic message on the screen before. Anybody has an idea what might be causing this? During on of these episodes I ran memtest86 on the box without error. CPU is an AMD Phenom 6core.
