Ok - I played a bit with this, then subsequently tried
moving the font files into the boot filesystem (in
/etc/fonts) - and *still* I can't get it to use 8x8 fonts,
either at boot time or manually loading them afterwards.  It
seems to load the fonts OK; it just seems that wscons isn't
using them (so I just see the top half of 8x16 fonts).

Is there *anyone* out there who has got 80x50 consoles
working with 1.5?

Thanks
