  Hello,

  this patch (against 2.6.4) fixes a bug which I hit when migrating from 2.4.
Basically, when I do setfont during the system boot, the then-spawned ttys do
not retain the new font but fall back to the default one.

  I've tracked that down to a clearly bogus test in fbcon_set_display(),
because vc->vc_font.width is not set at that time yet (no font has been loaded
for the new vc). But even if it would (or this was meant to test against
tmp->vc_font.width), it would mean only *HUGE* fonts would be retained.  And
even if there were *two* bugs there and it was supposed to be less-than there,
I couldn't make a sense of the test.

  Please consider applying.
