	Hey

   I upgraded my primary desktop machine to precise this weekend, and 
noticed that the monospace font with size 8 gives me a weird looking 
terminal. Next I ran a small test to see how precise compares with 
oneiric. Using a fullscreen terminator window on a oneiric & precise kvm 
instance (1024x768) give me these terminal geometries:

Ubuntu monospace
size 		oneiric		precise
7		201x72		201x80
8		201x65		168x65
9		168x55		168x60
10		144x48		144x55

"Monospace" (DejaVu Sans Mono)
size		oneiric		precise
7		168x60		201x72
8		168x55		144x55
9		144x48		144x51
10		126x42		126x48


Can anyone confirm, or better, knows why this is? Size 8 has been 
perfect for me, now the terminals are all weird :/
