What font is this?

The Ubuntu font family are a set of matching new libre/open fonts.
Try fc-list command. It is a quick and handy command to lists fonts and styles available on the Linux system for applications using fontconfig. You can use fc-list to find out whether a particular language font is installed or not.
Ubuntu uses 'Ubuntu' as its default desktop font, and has done since Ubuntu 10.10. Many Ubuntu flavors have chosen to use the typeface as their default system font too.
By default, the virtual console uses the kernel built-in font with a CP437 character set[1], but this can be easily changed. The Linux console uses UTF-8 encoding by default, but because the standard VGA-compatible framebuffer is used, a console font is limited to either a standard 256, or 512 glyphs.
Ubuntu Mono from the Ubuntu Font Family (font.ubuntu.com) is the default GUI monospace terminal font on Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot).
Terminus Font (terminus-font.sourceforge.net) is the default font on the Linux console (Ctrl + Alt + F1, $ /bin/setfont /usr/share/consolefonts/FOO.psf.gz)
GNU Unifont (unifoundry.com) is the default font for the CD bootloader menu, GRUB bootloader, and alternate (text-based) installer where a software framebuffer is in use. (Unifont is full-coverage fall-back font.)
