I've taken a closer look and its not only console that looks bad. I think that observation, that after rescaling to 1280x1024 fonts are rendered poperly, means here something important. But I have no idea, what. > Observation: > you're running 1600x1200@85Hz while basic Single Link DVI has it's > maximum at 1600x1200@60Hz > > To run higher resolutions or frequency, the entire chain has to support > reduced blanking capabilities and there's recently been a mail which > suggested this was broken in "older" versions of "something" (worked in > some recent ubuntu, but not debian) > > This would impact _everything_ but might be only notable in the > bright-on-black context of konsole. > > So you should either absolutely ensure that the entire HW chain (output, > cable, input) is Dual Link DVI (full pins, no gap the the plug) or try > the outcome of 1600x1200@60Hz (yes, 60Hz on crts suck) or try a vga > connection. But in fact my monitor IS connected via a standard VGA connector. It simply has no DVI plug, only VGA. My graphics card has a single output connector and a splitter, which allows me to connect two monitors, both using VGA connector (I'm using only one). > xrandr --output DVI-I-1 --mode 1600x1200 --rate 60 > > If this is crisp (but flickers.. that's normal) there's your problem.

It would mean, that the only thing left for me is to use a proprietary NVidia driver. Becouse if the binary driver does something and nouveau not, it means, that nouveau should be fixed/improved to obtain the same functionality (which is basic here). Otherwise it's kind of useless...
