I have installed Ubuntu on VirtualBox on my MacBook Pro (running Mac OS X 10.5). I have set both Ubuntu terminal's text and my iTerm's text on MacBook using the same font (monospace) and same size (10).
My question is why the text on Ubuntu's terminal appear to be bigger and has more gap between lines? And why the ubuntu gnome environment has a 'low resolution' (I run on the same hardware), so I don't understand why the Mac OS X env appears to have higher resolution?
Thank you for any pointers.
