11 If by "console" you mean the console, you can
12 compile a custom kernel with the console font
13 you desire.
14
15 If you mean a terminal emulator, such as xterm,
16 you can usually use -fn lucidasanstypewriter-10
17 or -fn ""-*-*-medium-r-*-*-*-80-100-100-*-*-*-*"
18 or some similar nonsense. x11-apps/xfontsel can
19 help with finding font names.
