fonts in terminal!

Hi,
I recently did a clean install of arch linux, and I can't seem to setup my fonts in the terminal window.
I have selected terminus as font, but only my username in the terminal is using the terminus font, everything else is some other bold shitty font as you can see in the image below

please help!

> I have selected terminus as font
How did you do that?

Edit: try running this

printf '\33]50;%s\007' xft:terminus:antialias=false:pixelsize=14

It works in my urxvt terminal so I thought we can give it a shot, but as it doesn't work in xterm, I'm not surprised.

Does Terminus work fine in other applications/terminals?
