If you do see 80 chars in the horizontal and 30 lines of text, maybe that is the normal appearance, especially if you have a very large display? Also if your monitor does not have a 4:3 aspect ratio, then the fonts could appear stretched. Why not try a higher resolution instead, at least 1024x768? If you think the problem is different, why not post a link with a screenshot of the console? BTW, have you tried using other apps, such as X, fbtest, etc, and still see the same problem? Tony |
