What's wrong with Terminus? I've used that since a long time.
The only thing I don't like is that the m looks too close to
an n ...

To use Terminus in a Linux VT, unless it is on by default,
install packages console-setup and console-setup-linux from
the Debian repos, then do

  $ sudo chmod +s /bin/setfont

and now you can set the font like this

  $ setfont Lat7-TerminusBold24x12
