long-lines, or get back to 80 columns.  In any case, it would help if we
knew which distribution you are running.  Debin at least lets you
configure these aspects of your console through the file
/etc/default/console-setup.  For instance, my desktop at work contains
the following settings:
ACTIVE_CONSOLES=3D"/dev/tty[1-6]"
CHARMAP=3D"UTF-8"
CODESET=3D"Lat15"
FONTFACE=3D"Terminus"
FONTSIZE=3D"12x24"
FONT=3D"Lat15-Terminus28x14.psf.gz brl-28x14.psf"
SCREEN_WIDTH=3D"88"

My framebuffer terminal has 1280x1024 pixels (you can find this out with
the command fbset).  My fonts are 14 pixels wide.  1280/14 is roughly 91
characters per line.  Since my braille display is exactly 88 columns
long (a Handy Tech Modular Evolution 88) I additionally set SCREEN_WIDTH
to 88 (which results in the stty call mentioned by Samuel being executed
for me during console setup).

Hope this helps.
