Please give more info about this. Console-setup can load large fonts
with 512 glyphs and it is also possible to load a non-standard font in
/etc/default/console-setup:
FONT=/usr/local/share/funnyfonts/sarge16.psf
ACM=/usr/local/share/consoletrans/my_special_encoding.acm
Do you mean that in order to support blind people console-setup has to
be able to load simultaneously two different fonts? If so, I will need
more information in order to make the necessary changes.
