This is a minor nit, but now and then (usually due to modem line
noise) I get something sent to my console driver that switches the
font to a set of graphical characters (I'm using a 132x43 mode on a
Paradise card). Numbers show up normally, but everything else is
squiggly symbols :-)
Is there a utility out there to restore the normal font? I've had to
reboot to get normal characters, which is a bit annoying...
Oh, and congrats to everyone involved with the console driver. Nice
fast VTs and the first readable 132x43 text mode I've seen on PC
systems. Great job.
