I have not played with this since the initial setup, but here goes. cat /etc/sysconfig/console # Begin /etc/sysconfig/console KEYMAP="us" FONT="default8x16" LOGLEVEL="1" UNICODE="true" #End /etc/sysconfig/console and to change the fonts you can use setfont on any of the fonts in /lib/kbd/consolefonts As was already mentioned, I believe there are kernel config options, too, but I'm afraid I have not found time to play around with them; it's pretty rare I find myself on a VT other than 7. -- Regards, Trent. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
