Re: Debian Jessie : regular console instead of a hi-res one!



The simplest way is to direct KMS's framebuffer to use a lower resolution than the native hi-res one by including a video= parameter on the kernel cmdline. The lower the resolution, the larger the standard (usually 16x9) framebuffer font becomes. On a 1920x1200 display I typically use video=1440x900@60; on a 1920x1080, 1280x720@60; depending on size of display and actual resolutions it supports. Using video=1920x1080 on a 2560x1440 display should produce a font 177% of the physical size of the one used natively.
