Thanks for the suggestion Siard but it doesn't seem to work here.
I tried a couple of dirrerent fonts and changing the text size but
none affected the display.
Is there a way to turn off the framebuffer for the commandline
short of rebuilding the kernel which I haven't gotten to work yet?

Both MAIL & MAILCHECK are set in the environment but I have set
MAILCHECK=0 in .bashrc which ought to solve the problem. I've yet to
find where it's set though in Squeeze.
Much obliged,
