User Information for the Fedora terminus-font-console package
========================================================================

The console package just dumps the font files in the directory where
the other console fonts are and does not do any setting up (for now).

 * The difference between all those ter-????.psf.gz files is
   explained in the file

      /lib/kbd/consolefonts/README.terminus

 * You can manually change the font for the Linux VGA textmode or
   framebuffer console by running something like

      /bin/setfont /lib/kbd/consolefonts/ter-u16b.psf.gz

   Note that using a font of a different font size will change the
   $COLUMNS and $LINES of the terminal together with the changed
   font size.

 * To make the above setting permanent, adapt the file

      /etc/sysconfig/i18n

   to set e.g. SYSFONT="ter-116b".

   Then re-build the initramfs image manually, or wait until the next
   kernel installation triggers an initramfs rebuild. This will copy
   the respective font file onto the initramfs image.
