I'm also experiencing something similar. I'm having to adjust my fonts a bit more than I did in Backtrack because I cannot find something as close and smooth as my font in Backtrack. Also, I've tried using Terminator and the font there displays completely horrible. Not sure what the deal is there.

I wish to get more fonts for the terminal, how would I go about doing that?

Try this, let me know if its what you are going for:

apt-get install console-setup

Edit this file: /etc/default/console-setup
example: pico /etc/default/console-setup

Change the following to your desire:

FONTFACE=”Terminus”
FONTSIZE=”16″
Save this file (cntrl + o; for pico)

and then restart the service:

/etc/init.d/console-setup restart
afterthought... maybe its: service console-setup restart

Changes should be right away.
Please report back your success^^
