Hello
	Have use tried 'setfont' ?
On the system I'm on at the moment (non-debian) the default font gives a
'u' character for 'shift-3'
I do a 'setfont iso09**' to get sterling signs where ** is the fontsize.

The console fonts are usually in /usr/share/consolefonts.

But for obvious reasons don't play  with this on a working server ;)
At least until you're happy.
