And the console font is exactly what I need. I don't bother about the Grub 
font (Grub menu), which is OK.
In other words: where is 'elsewhere'?

Since no one could provide a working answer to my question yet: am I right 
when I conclude that setting up a console resolution with Grub2 is impossible?
(why do we have to use Grub2 anyway? Can I safely get rid of it?)
