That's probably because Debian switched back from console-tools to kbd. console-tools was unmaintained and kbd supported more stuff. You want to use "setfont", or just edit /etc/default/console-setup and restart console-setup. Note that setfont /is/ consolechars, but supports larger fonts. I'm using a 16×32 font with the following settings: CHARMAP="UTF-8" CODESET="Uni2" FONTFACE="TerminusBold" FONTSIZE="32x16" i.e. /etc/default/console-setup is where setfont gets the font information from; you don't need to run it by hand yourself. This is actually a nice improvement over the previous methods. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
