Anyone know how to change the font of the command line in Linux (arch)?

I use a size 10 font in urxvt, so its wierd to see a size 12 on startup (I don't use a graphical display manager) or when I'm not in a DE.

Pageloss.

Ubuntu has amazing support if you're using that.

What distro are you using now?

I mean steam

I mean steam

So steam needs better Linux support? I guess that's true. But Linux isn't exactly what I would use for the ultimate gaming rig.

RTFM

Code: (Example Font Declaration) [Select]

URxvt.font: xft:monaco:size=10

I'm not talking about my terminal emulator. I'm talking about the actual command line that you can see by pressing CTRL+ALT+F6.
The one you see in a server install of any distro.
I already said I had the font I want in urxvt.

If it had more support that would be great. I would probably use it for gaming then. But now, it's not a very close goal as Windows is the most popular PC gaming platform.

good choice
I'm considering buying another SSD to dual boot a distro with, would that be a good idea?

Awesome. I hope it has worked well for you. I, personally, cannot stand the Ubuntu desktop. I much prefer XFCE over any other.

And come on guys.
Help me with this thing that I've been asking for since halfway down page 2.
