You can get the fonts from a really old kdebase tarball, for example: |

|
| 24 |
ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/Attic/2.2.2/src/kdebase-2.2.2.tar.bz2 |
| 25 |

Contains: |

|
| 28 |
kdebase-2.2.2/konsole/fonts/9x15.pcf.gz |
| 29 |
kdebase-2.2.2/konsole/fonts/console8x16.pcf.gz |
| 30 |
kdebase-2.2.2/konsole/fonts/console8x8.pcf.gz |
| 31 |
