I've been using Fixedsys Excelsior for months and I love it; it's pretty big compared to most bitmap fonts and it being bitmap keeps me from messing with fontconfig's hinting more than necessary. The only flaw is that it doesn't have an italic or bold version. It does have a variant with programming ligatures though, if you're into that: https://github.com/kika/fixedsys https://github.com/kika/fixedsys
