Could you provide some more information? Which distro are you using? What's
your locale (i.e. the value of the LANG environment variable)? And which

I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 and Ubuntu 9.04 on x86 hardware. If I run the
Text IDE inside gnome-terminal, everything looks perfect. All window
borders are drawn correctly. This is with the Gnome desktop
environment.

But if I disable the X Window System - linux booting to console mode
only with the fbdev framebuffer enabled, then the Text IDE doesn't
look right. How do I find out what font is being used in framebuffer
mode? I simply added "vga=791" to my grub menu.lst file which
contained the kernel line I am booting.

I did manage to compile and run a sample C program I got from
wikipedia, which outputs the resolution my framebuffer is using:
1024x768  16bpp


Framebuffer fonts are kernel stuff. You may find useful information here:

or perhaps here:

http://howto.wikia.com/wiki/Howto_configure_the_Linux_kernel/drivers/video/console

A Google search on "Linux kernel font" may shed further light.
Hope that it helps.

Regards,

Giuliano
