From: Todd A. Jacobs on 23 May 2010 19:50 After a recent kernel update, my linux terminal is now displaying teeny-tiny text. How do I set the default terminal back to 80x25? -- "Oh, look: rocks!" -- Doctor Who, "Destiny of the Daleks" -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

How do I set the default terminal back to 80x25? Are you running grub-legacy? If so what is vga= set to? Is the old kernel still installed, that is, the one where the font was as you liked it? If so does it still behave as you'd like? If so, are there any differences between them -- configs/grub settings etc? -- Chris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
