"Andale Mono" and "Inconsolata" are two reasonably good options that I've been using for a long time. As I get older I too get annoyed when I can't easily distinguish between a "O" and "0" for example and the aforementioned fonts are good in that respect. However, I can't vouch for their ability to handle non-USA character sets.

Most cool. I've never tried to add a font to Linux, can you point me in the right direction? Some good doc?
