15 Say Y here if you would like to use fonts other than the default
16 your frame buffer console usually use.
17
18 Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
19 kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
20 the questions about foreign fonts.
21
22 If unsure, say N (the default choices are safe).

29 This is the "high resolution" font for the VGA frame buffer (the one
30 provided by the text console 80x50 (and higher) modes).
31
32 Note that this is a poor quality font. The VGA 8x16 font is quite a
33 lot more readable.
34
35 Given the resolution provided by the frame buffer device, answer N
36 here is safe.
