I tried many fonts and their sizes but the problem didn't disapper.
And the space about 1/5 of my display (on the right) under console
aren't workable.
It seems to me that probably it is a problem with settings of vga.
But when my system starting, before the messgae "console: switching to
colour frame buffer device 128x48", I have normal fonts as in Lenny and
full screen. Beginning this message fonts and workable screen space size
are maked smaller.
