Shell mode fonts.
by Q u a s i 16 Aug '01

16 Aug '01

Folks, Earlier when I had Slackware (now Debian), I remember there used to be some utility called fontconfig or something with which one could change the screen font in the normal text mode. Some of the fonts were _very_ good. Is this still possible in Slackware and is this available for Debian? quasi -- postscript -- Math is like love -- a simple idea but it can get complicated. -- R.

Just add the following lines in your /etc/resolv.conf nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx The "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" are the IPs obtained from `ipconfig' Fart
